After two and half long months at sea....two aircraft carriers, a cruiser, several merchant ships and a bloody long boring fuel starved journey back to Pearl......and nothing, nadda, zip. Not even a well done. Pinned some cheap bit of tin to me chest and told to get on with it.....

Life in the Navy eh!

2&1/2 months? that is a long patrol... they probably thought you were skiving on hawaii with the hula girls or something

mind you I'm playin uboats and life in the kriegsmarine ain't much better, still I consider it a long patrol if i go more than 6 weeks my fuel & torps never seem to last much longer than that. 1st patrol, 29000 tonnes sunk I get an Iron cross 1st class and a... well nothing. not even a word. no fancy new deck gun/aa gun/experimental radar etc...

Where's my gold plated luger?

Yep....the missus caught me fooling around with a nurse before I left port so thought if I stayed out long enough she would have forgotten

47k sunk...thanks to "stumbling" across 2 Ac's

Question re the uboat missions. Are you using any of the super mods and if so which ones...?

Sammi79 · 05-02-10, 07:19 PM

My mods are like this in JSGME

Opmonsun v705
Opmonsun v705-v720
Opmonsun v720 patch 4
OMEGU v300
OMEGU v300 patch 6
ATO Kapitans officemod (atlantic theatre map etc..)
German Map labels
Das boot music (I tweaked this one ro suit my taste)
silhouette tweaks for the recognition manual

+ my own mod which fixes some dials and just kinda tweaks stuff to how I like it/think it should be

If u wanna play kriegsmarine, Operation Monsun by Lurker_hlb3 is the way to go - It's on a par with TMO/RFB whole campaign rewrites, loads more german subs etc... about as realistic as I can tell anyway. OMEGU is the environmental/graphical upgrade its completely non essential and all the extra german stuff is just me being OTT really.

I used to play fleet boats with TMO when I started had a year or so of great escapades that way, but being british the german boats always had more attraction for me. I may swap back sometime soon though, been thinking about it, TMO was immense and I know my way round the game files a bit better now.

P.s. 'stumbling' across 2 ACs? why you lucky lucky.......

Oh, there's plenty nurses in the game, some ports have groups of 30 or more, but usually just a group of gals and a nice band welcoming you.

I've spent many a night with the redhead, so stay away from her.
