Respect for the Sinking

Frank0001 · 04-17-08, 12:10 PM

I've really started paying respect for the ships I am sinking from now on. Today, I sunk a cargo ship of some sort. I started approuching it slowly when I heard this high-pitched wheeping or screaming noise. The ship was actually dieing.
At first, I was thinking this to be some kind of dolphin or whale, but...dolphins north of Scotland? A mermaid perhaps? No...I've not been away from port that long to believe that.

Therefore, it must have been the ship itself, crying, and moaning in its death struggle.
I never heard this before, and it really touched me. From now on, no mindless killing anymore, but instead respect for the sunken ones.

Thanks Brag, I've been reading the forums mostly :P
And Dowly's humorous picture thread gave me alot of good laughs :P

Bernhaaaaaard!!! xD
But, who is Bernhard exactly? Whats his role in the boat? To bring pure chaos to the waters of the atlantic?

Haha, I was wondering that myself too for a while. Then I heard Bernhard is purely fictive, made up by someone. Then someone posted another picture with Bernhard, then another and another...and so on.

Great fun there

Since there's no split tails on the boat, when I sink a ship I put the microphone up into the hull and crank up the volume.
Hey, the boys got to get some kind of excitement.
