Campaign 'Battle Of The Mediterranean' objectives

[hms ulisses]

Search for task force with 9 kn speed!

Hi, I just catch 2 of 3 british subs! 07 febr 1942, 11º38 E 40º 11 N!
They travel with 11 Knots SUBMERGED - SO, AFTER I make a save (outsaide of visual range) I try to get closer - but no chance!

Advices: dont try to shoot them with torpedo! no chance! I try salvo, individual shoot, no results! Worst, they dive! So, just re-load the save and:

first - deep to periscope, get the direction with sonar man, then surface with full diesel speed. Big surprise for me, they just get again on periscope deep and I have a visual contact with them in 2000 m range.
I run to the deck gun and I start shooting, and strange, they dont dive!
So, after 20-25 round, I manege to destroy the 1º one!

Strange again, the second one was in oposite direction STILL on periscope deep, so I just start fire on them; I manage to get 5-6 from 25-30 with piercing rounds and, for my great satisfaction, the kills count in the mission.

Update: I got the last one 14 march 42 in 11º54E and 37 º 16 N - on surface, allready engaged by italian aircrafts. I start shooting verry fast with armour piercing rounds, before the aircrafts kill him! I was with chance, and kill him after 45-50 rounds from 3000 m! (just 5-6 really caugh him!)
So, until now, I can take the siege of malta with a lot of time - 5 months.
I hope this will help.

Firstly, who made you a forum mod?

Secondly, had you taken the time to read his posts you would have seen that he was updating his posts as he did the campaign.

As far as I know there are no rules against this

[robbo180265]

And lastly - welcome to the forum hms ulisses

You'll find most of us friendly and helpful.

Sorry if someone think this was Spam, but I read all about this (complicated) campaign and I see here was more doubts about how to finish this mission,

I just try to help.

Now, just a big hug from Portugal!

Never said there was. wasnt malicious. never said or acted like a mod.

however since hes new he should be cut a lot of slack. people can edit their posts, and essentially use 1 post as their questions and updates. but again since hes new and its not a big deal, it doesnt matter. just telling him that he can also use the edit button and add on to his post, like this.

blah blah blah (main post)

later, he updates it.

Edit: blah blah blah.

Btw, i edited my own post to include this, and took out the smiley.
