I dunno, Been quiet lately.

Yesterday I went to play SHIII and it hard locked my machine. So I tried SHIV same result! So today I cleaned my CPU internals and found this, Broken processor fan mount. 10 lbs of cat hair and 15 pounds of good old Arizona dust!

Fan mount I rigged with with a twist tie. I bet that caused the lockups as my CPU had no pressure at the contact with the fan base.

Oddly enough I cleaned this 4 months ago!

Look at the viewing numbers of this forum. They're all salivating over SH5.

Kptl Schmidt (U-16 Type VIIC) is currently on a northward patrol pattern Grid BF77, Kptl Kramer (U-49 Type VIIB) has docked at Vigo & Obl Lange (U-45 Type VIIB) is in home port Kiel enjoying a well-deserved leave after a successful first patrol. Having been endlessly admonished by Jimbuna to "be more aggressive", I now growl loudly at every opportunity and shake my fist vigourously at approaching aircraft before diving to avoid them. Having received a congratulatory radio message from our fearless leader Neal for spotting and reporting a spam posting, I gave myself a medal (Beck's beer-bottle cap 1st class). Apart from that, all is quiet on the western front.

U-53 here...
Alister Homlier docked at the Thalia in early 1940, after the boat was sabotaged and would only turn 8 knots flank. After spending a few days refueling and getting some well needed rest, well set sail again latter on today. The idea of chewing up merchants around the straight of Gibraltar still sounds fun... then its a fast trip home through the English Channel, and finally Wilhelmshavin.
I would love to be able to play more, unfortunately.. my van jumped a tooth on the timing belt and Ive spent more than a few hours tearing it down and putting it back together. Today should be the last day for that though.

To : BdU
From : U-27

Advance hydrophone course was a success; sunk 3 freighters using only hydrophone.
New targeting system worked excellently; sunk 1 freighter at 2700m (would've sunk another freighter at 3000m if Bernard hadn't chosen 0kts for target's speed ).
Requesting immediate transfer for Bernard to Gibraltar *patrol* duty.
