Must be a nightmare with that thing negotiating harbour traffic.

Jimbuna · 07-17-07, 10:24 AM

It's diving times must be frighteningly long as well

Konovalov · 07-17-07, 10:25 AM

Yeah, even worse than my last Type IX coupled with my slow reaction times.

Sailor Steve · 07-17-07, 10:34 AM

Given its size, I don't see it being a "secret" weapon for long.

Kpt. Lehmann · 07-17-07, 10:48 AM

Jeez, I'm gonna have nightmares for days... sort of like when I fell asleep during a laxative infomercial... hypnotic suggestion.

(No I didn't crap myself to death... just couldn't get that pseudo doctor talking about "colon cleansing" over and over... out of my head for a long time. If I ever meet that guy... I'm gonna force-feed him Raisin Bran.)

Schöneboom · 07-17-07, 12:10 PM

Gott sei Dank that thing is on our side!!!

ichso · 07-17-07, 12:51 PM

Maybe this was planned as being used like the Trojan Horse from the Antique ? But which harbour should have got invaded by this and how many soldiers would have fit in it ?
:hmm:

STEED · 07-17-07, 01:14 PM

That's one big fecking duck.

papa_smurf · 07-17-07, 01:18 PM

At least you cannot say that you did not see it coming

Hitman · 07-17-07, 01:22 PM

I think the real secret weapon is the baby that plays with such thing :hmm: If they are already very destructive in their normal size (I have two so I know what I'm talking about), just imagine what one who is proportional to that duck can do :rotfl:

papa_smurf · 07-17-07, 01:25 PM

Just imagine that thing been thrown at your u-boat!
