What a patrol we had, Herr Kaleun!! (pics heavy)

Abd_von_Mumit · 01-22-07, 07:03 AM

No. I cannot stop myself from posting all these screenshots and data. Would you? I bet you wouldn't, if you'd just completed two patrols with 275k tons and 4 HMS's sunk with 100% realism settings in GWX.

So… I am proud sinker of (my "personnel file"):
– HMS Royal Oak (Revenge Class), 31000 tons (my friend Guenther says he did it, but he's a certain lier when drunk),
– HMS Southampton (Southampton Class) , 10725 tons,
– HMS Rodney, 36000 tons,
– HMS Nelson (HMS Nelson), 36000 tons.

All these sunk in convoys (not ports), all of them by TII torpedoes, 11 metres deep, magnetic pistol. Southampton I hit with only 1 of 2 torpedoes I aimed to her. All the others sunk after hitting with 2 torpedoes. I managed to hit with 1 torpedo another Revenge Class next patrol, but it didn't sink, Dido Class with 2 torpedoes, didn't sink, and missed some 8 torpedoes to other battleships (they go bloody too fast...). Usually when I spot a battleship in a convoy, I stick to it and try not to waste torpedoes to other ships (it's not always possible to stop myself, though...).

Some boring screenshots you find below (Goebbles boys didn't do well, vomiting all the time as the weather was not very pleasant to them). My graphic card (nVidia MMX) works very bad with SH3, so I hardly ever make any screenshots. This time I provide 2 screens of HMS Rodney:

Last look at the target and LOS!

Target hit, Herr Kaleun. Could we start submerging, please... It can become quite hot in here. Please, Mumit, let's dive NOW!!!

We're going home, comra... er... boys! "It's a long way to...!"

Let's tell Papa Doenitz what we did ASAP! Where's the damn radioguy again?!

Patrol 1st logs:

O! No Ritterkreuz? Well... Couldn't I have one, please? Ok, ok! Deal. I can take the promotion instead, Papa, so that my crew can now legally call me their Kapitaenleutnant.

O... My crew got some medals too?! But... Papa... Are you sure they really deserve it? Just after the first patrol? Well... my first too... but you see... I shouldn't spoil them too fast, don't you think so?

My realism settings

Next patrol in next post, as there are too many pics to fit in one.

And the second patrol logs. That one was much less successfull, mainly because we got to selfasured, I think, and missed with way too many torpedoes. Also the weather got even worse so we couldn't use our gun as much as desired. And the convoys didn't pass our way so often. But the last one came staight to us with it's juicy HMS.

Patrol logs, summary and crew medals:
