Icebergs and ice

AndyW · 02-01-07, 03:52 AM

I once found an Iceberg on Sept.12, 1943 at AE828 (playing GWX). Pretty exciting. Shows up like a ship contact, but without sound in the hydrophone, of course. If there hadn't been storm, I'd had fired some shots at it for gunnery training.

Cheers,
AndyW

I've never seen an iceberg in GWX or GW, but hope dies last as they say

That's true but they tend to appear in areas with minimal traffic. I'm on my way to the Carribean for some pina coladas and some juicy Tankers

hope you're not wasting your time then. for two reasons:

1. No icebergs in that area. belive me: I was there not too long ago, didn't find a single one! (not that I really searched for them down there....)

2. If it's too close the americans joining in the war, you won't find much traffic....I didn't.......
