[REL] Open Horizons II (old thread)

You may see 'floating' subnets if you save/reload. I'm trying to figure out why currently. Just some FYI so people don't freak out about it

The PT Boats will act strangely or irratically until IRAI v32 is released.

...

ops I removed them from this test version just to avoid complains about the floating nets. Hope you dont mind. This is mentioned in te first post.

But of course the nets will be there in the release version, no doubt.

iam about 80Km NW of Malta at current, there is a battlegroup in range including 1 Dido light cruiser... german Stuka bombers, equipped with bombs attacking the cruiser, they fly in dive bomb attacks and sometimes manage to break through the AA defence but wont drop any bombs on it

...iam following this group quite a while and at the beginning the group had 2 dido cruisers, not shure if this is the same group or if german planes sunk the second cruiser.

They will drop it eventually, this campaign is full with Luftwaffe vs Royal navy battles and the germans are deadly precise. And Malta is just a huge battlefield.

Make sure you save the game before approaching Valletta!! :P

Consider yourself lucky, those boats are deadly once they spot you. Do not forget about the mines

Just had my first encounter with dolphins. Note: when the sonar reports slow merchants, you better listen by yourself :P

then 2 Sunderlands approached me, i dint fire and they just flow over my head doing nothing, then the sunderlands together with a BF109 approached an british DD and bombed him...

...i must say the german secret military service use damn dirty tricks here
