I can relate to Snakeeyes. Im a college student, taking a full load of classes plus i work part time 15-20 hours a week driving a zamboni. When im not in school or at work, im either doing homework, writing essays for English Comp or doing math, Calculus. So on a good day i might play about 1-2 hours of SH3, but when i play i kick ass.

Um... "driving a zamboni?"

That's not prison-lingo is it?

hahaha, nah i work at an ice rink in Haverhill, and i drive the "ice Resurfacing" vechicle, its not really a zamboni, its an Olympia, haha, its a fun job but it gets chilly in there, but its going to be a nice cool summer for me.

nice 1 hunt

what about DDs?

last time I bumped into convoy west of africa heading to gibraltar (late 43), Ive spent several hours hunting each other with DDs on rough seas....in the end Ive sank 4 DDs (!!!) and when I was about to attack defensless convoy (with only 2 eels left), Ive encountered another convoy going in opposite direction with 5 fresh escorting DDs!!!!

Managed to sneak away but pi$$ed off!!!!!

Acutally, I'm going to try using a homing torpedo to go up against destroyers tonight. Wish me luck and check the next thread.

Make sure they are fast speed (over 12 knts) for the homing torpedo to work. Set it to 5m / magnetic, most DDs are 3,5 to 4 m draft...
One method is having one in the stern tube, signalize to a DD you're there, it will come full speed for you. Risky business though, make sure you're far enough when saying "hello"...
