Default 117,791 tons

117,791 tons in one patrol, my best yet. Of course I didn't do it like most of you do, by cruising & scouting lol

I hit Naha & then Itoman harbors & then went down to the base by rabaul to resupply; then after dodging Japanese bombing raids I went into Truk lagoon & sunk a Fuso & a Yamato at anchor.

Boring by some standards but I enjoy sneaking into harbors....especially Truk.


Mods: RFB, RSRDC & Real U.S. Medals <-- if any of you modders read this; thanks for all your work on these.

this one is most funny, though it's cheat ridden so....

slapped on a S-18 sub, went from minilia, went towards naval arsnel in hiroshima, blew up everything in my way using deck gun (100m deck gun cheat btw), including 2 planes, went back out to sea, went to tokyo, blew everything in that harbor to bits with deckgun (again, with the 100m), stayed out of tokyo bay for a week, sunk anything i saw, thinking about going back to sabuya, found jap task force with 2 cariers, an ise, etc, sunk with deck gun, went back to sabuya.

total tonnage? approx 300,000
then again, i was using cheats. not one torp fired :p
story's moral? best meat is in hiroshima harbor, but watch the anti sub nets.

Who me? Mine are legit as far as no sub-nuclear torps or anything. I DID sink them all in harbors though, none were moving...as I said in the op; I snuck into the harbors mentioned, went & reloaded torps & went into Truk & sunk the BB's also at anchor.

I like sneaking into harbors & shooting ducks in a barrel.

This post just shows what a great game this is. Play for realism challenge, or play for kicks. Just play and pray for better offerings.

If Im reading this right the 'targets' were sitting still. Makes it pretty easy to solve

The only harbor I've never been able to penetrate has been Rabaul. I die every single time....one day....one day.
