My first carrier!

Armistead · 08-25-10, 01:11 PM

I once sank a carrier by ramming it and the one beside it by pushing it out to sea....

However both were basically sunk by torps in shallow water at Tawi, but wouldn't go deep enough to register sunk. I rammed one enough that it finally sunk, the other I put my bow against the bridge and was able to push it just enough to deep water that it went under....Rather funny, but was rather mad they wouldn't go under...

Realistic...not hardly.

Nice job airman!!!!

I once had a carrier in my sights but was in shallow water surrounded by IJN destroyers and had to let her slowly slip away and live to fight another day

that was killer!

I was sailing around in USS Montpelier lastnight, on perhaps her 87th war patrol, when the Nuke Boat stumbles on a jap taskforce. 4 fish and the carriers sink,...and before i can even order flank speed on a 300 foot dive, all the warships decide to raise hell, and the 120 or so odd crew, (60ish ingame?) go down.

Sadly i havent seen a Carrier since, and even with 35knots underwater, i can never find one now.
