Do you use GWX? I've just had most of my upper deck shredded by an armed tugboat!! I wouldn't have taken it on but the bugger chanced upon me in shallow waters whilst I was lining up on a pyro ship and he started dropping ash cans, so I thought, well, he's only a rowing boat with a couple of machine guns and a pop gun up front.

Three dead, three injured and a blackened fore deck later the tug took a hit to his ammo storage and blew up pretty spectacularly before sinking like a stone. Unfortunately I then hit another F$£"*()$£"&*()king seamount on the way back to Wilhelmshaven and sunk.

Oberlt Elric seems to have an extreme death-wish...wherever he goes British Destroyers and geography seem to follow...

Anyway, I've learnt my lesson and will try to stick to my standard GWX doctrine...if it has a gun, avoid it like a case of crabs.
