A good haul....Scrap one drydock!

Was the dry dock difficult to sink?

Don't you love the raiding. I stopped the RN from shooting up Calais after the channel was reopened, but the raiding was Freetown and Alexandria. Both were well worth the time.

The drydock took 1 torpedo and sank instantly! But a word of advice there are two drydocks on a shallow keel and one a deep keel (13 meters) I found the shallow keel and wasted three torpedos before I figured out that they were going under it. So I had to manualy change the torpedo depth to 0 before I could hit it.

Also it would be cooler to find a drydock with a ship in it!:rotfl:

Drydocks are quite easy...take only 1 torp set at shallow depth and right in the middle...they go down for me every time...

BTW - if you like Scapa, there is one in perfect position in the Western portion...just hang a right at the first place you can, stick your scope up, go almost to the end of the island on your left, and Walla! It will show up at a 90 degree angle across your bow at 0 degrees...Torpedo Los and down she goes...

Dry dock with the Ark Royal inside?

One torpedo 100,000 tons what renown!

No addotional tonnage for ships

The ship in it would just float anyway!
