Whats your longest career?

cultist · 07-19-07, 11:29 PM

i`ve read about a kaleun on the type 2`s making it to 45 safe and sound 3 times in a row.
it has to do with the fact that it is a coastal sub i guess.

my longest career ?

1/9/1940 till 25/8/1943
did 26 patrols and died (UNFAIRLY) over and over in patrol 26
had almoast 3 million tonns

nikbear · 07-20-07, 10:34 AM

1940-194?,still going,I'm not far off being offered a TypeXXI(please god please

)if I can just keep it together,but as mentioned by Foghladh_mhara its a pain in the ass all the diving and with all the aircover going on,its started to become tedious.But I'm determined to see it through to the bitter end,wish me luck

I'm going to need it

Steel_Tomb · 07-20-07, 01:40 PM

I made it to about two weeks from when Germany surrendered but got sent to the bottom by a special delivery curtosy of the Royal Air Force

, was a sitting duck after my diesels had been destroyed by some intense depth charging, the DD didn't like kindly for me killing the biggest ship in the convoy, '45 is absolute hell...if you want to survive don't expect to be getting mega tonnage like in 39/40 - 43

1940 - march 1943, in a VIIC (GWX 100%)

A stroke of bad luck...nough said

IrischKapitan · 07-20-07, 01:51 PM

My type IXC carrer has lasted the longest so far, Ive made it to January 1943 (GWX 100% realism) and I'm just beginning to feel the bite of allied air power......

Kaleu. Jochen Mohr · 07-20-07, 02:11 PM

Yeah, I just read in the Type II thread that someone made it to 45 in GWX two times. First time I read someone making it all the way. Hmmm..I may have to divorce my IX soon and give that one a drive. :0

Cheers

LOL yep I just about sank the whole task force in stock SH3 using the XXI in a single mission. Arrghh!Arrgh!

U-right. I can't quit my IX. No.No.No

My fresh install is not GWX certified yet.

Cheers

Steel_Tomb · 07-20-07, 03:58 PM

I love the XXI, but its like driving an Akula lol its too easy at times to kill loads of stuff off even in the later years of the war. For historical accuracy unless I've had an EXTREMELY successful career (in which the Fuhrur might assign me to one of these new boats) I will stick will a fully kitted out VIIC/42 or an IXC or whatever.

i take out TF's with my IXB's (U-124's) DG

just bumped up on one wich had a southampton class cruizers, a Dido class cruizer,6 DD's and the Illustrious...
none of them has passed or even hit me

Ubåtskapten · 07-20-07, 04:21 PM

My longest career lasted from 1939 to some weeks before 1943 when my good old IXB was blasted to death by depth charges from two determined destroyers.

This time I'll try to survive a bit longer in a VIIC (even though my last VIIC career ended in august 42).
