U-Boat destroyed by collision???

I just got, "destroyed" by collision just now. I was tracking submerged at 40m in AM53 when nect minute boom, I get that. When it shows the boat, there is nothing in sight at all. I didn't hit the bottom, nothing could have hit me at 40m. So... What the hell?!

So I'm realoading that. Normally I do the whole when Im dead I is dead thing... but this was just horse manure. So I aint standing for that!

A mine?! OMG yes of course!

Doh!

I didn't think there would be mines there. Mind you, that was a stock patrol.... oh dear....

You hit Nessy, how dare you hit that old girl. She will have to go back to Lock Ness to to recover. :rotfl:

How shallow was the water there? If it was deep, it might not have been a mine.

Read the 2nd half of this old post i made, i almost got destroyed by a collesion.. you'd never beleive it unless you'd seen it.

Sounds like a mine to me. Been there, done that, got a dent in my skull.

I vote for mine. Not much to collide with at 40 meters.
