Bismarck battle

[Jimbuna]

What you will find 'ingame' is that should you return to the area.....the Bismarck will be 'circling' regardless of the outcome of the battle.

Game limitations imposed on us regarding 'spawning' of vessels.

OK thanks a lot Jim.
Finally I've watched the files but I don't understand how can I traduce to find the position...

I must be tired probably but where is the position of the ship here ?

Mates...what does it means ?
3 times I re-uploade a save and 3 times I meet the same task force:


Nevada


New-Orleans

An american task force to intercept the Bismarck ????

[Chisum]

Sorry for the delay...I never realised you were awaiting an answer from me.

Yes, as I've highlighted above, the Hood is deleted from the roster on 25th May 41.

Thanks Jim.
An about the american task force to intercept the Bismarck ?

Another question: are you sure that this skin of the Bismarck is the real camo used during the battle ?
I know that the Bismarck has changing her camo near Bergen in the Kors Fjord on may 21 of 1941 and I doubt that she use this parade camo to go at war.
Just to ask if there is an other skin for the Bismarck(and Prinz Eugen who has changing her camo too).

To confirm that, there is a pic of the Bismarck May 24 of 1941 in the morning:



Camo is not the same.

If they are intercepting the Bismarck, it's gonna lose the task force commander a helluva lot of renown as the US and Germany aren't at war yet.

[Chisum]

Ok, ok...

Well.
May I introduce my last little vidéo work about the Bismarck ?

http://files.filefront.com/SH3+Bickw.../fileinfo.html

Actually in original version, don't worry, the english version coming very soon (uploading now).

Good one Chisum
My French is even worse than my German but I think I can grasp the "bigger picture".
The part of Oscar I have never heard before. Maybe not the best lucky charm that one

Can't understand.....my Campaign_Scr clearly depicts her being intercepted by a British Task Force.

As far as camo goes.....I use this:

You now have a choice of three

[Chisum]

Too late to my movie but it still wonderfull.

Thank you Jim.

The US task force is a neutrality patrol out of Iceland
There are similar ones out of Bermuda too
