Awesome story

two thumps up

IceGrog · 11-28-06, 10:33 AM

Great story
I’ve tried this in single missions, and have been able to sink some of the Royal Navy but always at the end I can see the Bismarck succumbing to the enemy fire
in my GW mission the message came thru, but i was too far away to get there in time

CptGrayWolf · 11-28-06, 10:58 AM

Nice!

Btw, I see you have made some 'politicaly correct' Bismark pics

kenijaru · 11-28-06, 12:58 PM

nice... wonderful

the Bismarck "hunt" is scripted in the stock game's campaign or is it a mod?
if it is a mod, where can i download it from?

FlyinS · 11-28-06, 05:42 PM

Very cool story with pics!!

Question for everyone, does the Bismarck encounter like that only occurr in a mod or does that happen in Vanilla as well? I haven't gotten that far yet.

bigboywooly · 11-28-06, 06:16 PM

IIRC its a single mission in the stock game

melnibonian · 11-28-06, 07:27 PM

Hi guys

I'm using a vanilla european version of the game (no mods no patch...my comouter barely handles the game at 1024x768

). I tried to find them in my carreer during my 14 th patrol, got to Be53 on May 19th and waited there (submerged most of the time) until may 29th with no results. Can anyone post an image with the Map (long distance so i can see the identification title as a reference point) so i can find them. In the sinlge mission my best result is delaying the bismark death, i sink the rodney

and the bismark takes care of one of the destroyer

but in the end it sinks anyway.

Cheers
