Most stupid thing I have done in SH3

WilhelmSchulz. · 08-07-06, 01:42 PM

While raiding NY I ran into a Elco and I took him out with my flack guns. But little did I know that he had called in a frend, a Somers DD. I crash dived in 18m of waters. I died.

I don't know the origin of the SH3 Bernard, but I'm REALLY enjoying all these tales of woe caused by him, or blamed on him anyway, lol. My ex-wife's "boyfriend" is called Bernard and I get a deep sense of satisfaction and an inner glow each time one of you slags him off big time, HA HA HA HA HA

Dont know if this counts as stupid or just bad luck. Attacked a convoy at night. Sank one large tanker and damaged a couple merchies. Went to about 50m to reload tubes while the Escorts hammered away at me. Now keep in mind, I try not to use the map view when evading escorts but prefere instead to stay in the control room and have my sonarman keep me informed. I was taking a swirl on the hydrophones myself, Escorts are close but not too close, then ..... blammo! "Whe're taking damage sir!" Batteries shot, electric engines down, flooding in 3 compartments. I sank to the bottom where I made enough noise that the Escorts pounded me into oblivion. All the while going WTF??? Just before the screen of death I checked the outside view, and sure enough, I had managed to manuver myself around and ram right into the sinking tanker.

I was showing a my cousin the Silent Hunter III so he could possibly get into the game. I was playing the Bismark mission and i was at periscope depth for about 10 minutes. I proceded to show him the basic method of setting up my attack run and was telling him about what was happening on the surface above me. I explained to him that we had to protect the Bismark and sink the British Capital ships. So I perfectly lined up my shots and fired 4 torps at a straggling battleship. All 4 hit. I yelled out, "Take that Churchill!" However my estatic feelings were squandered when my cousin said, "You're German right?" I said, "Well yeah." And i looked at external view (for the first time in the mission) and found that the battleship that I had torpedoed and sunk was the Bismark. lol
