Pretty new to SH3 I entered a harbor in the med with 100% in 1940.
It must be not to difficult this early in the war, let's do it I said.
I was soon spotted and six DD's came at me!

Last words: "alhoewel..." ("on the other hand...")

Hit the bottom almost before finishing "Allaarm" :rotfl:

a la star wars empire strikes back:

Watch officer: "Sir, enemy ships entering our sector!"
Captain (me): "Good. Our first catch of the day!"

Followed by the DD destroyer equivalent of the ion cannon barrage, saw me safely reduced to a pile of rapidly sinking junk inside of about 5 minutes.

my famous last word
"schei...." i was gonna say "scheisse"
and now the story behind the famous last word:rotfl:
i was sailing a VIIC/41 (Uflak) out of bergen in 1945 when i suddently got 6 radar contacts i then waited for the contacts to get close and bam there was 4 rocket equipped fighters and 2 big bombers
they arrived at my boat the same time
got hit directly with all of the bombs from the first bomber and almost all of the rockets with the fighters *DEAD*
worst part is i was standing on the bridge and i saw them hit
3 of the rockets even hit where i was standing:rotfl:

It's early in the war (1940 I think, this was a-ways back) and I spot a convoy. Not too large, just plump and juicy. The periscope tells me two escorts are in front and to the side and just creeping ahead, no maneuvering. So, I think I'll try something new. Mind you this is before GWX (i.e. deck guns do a lot of damage).

One fish each (97% realism), kablam, kaboom, soon they are both burning and headed for Davy Jones' locker. "Ok" I think, "there is bound to be at least one more". Sure enough. Merchants start wiggling and a small frigate is making its way straight to me. Straight. Bearing 0... yummy. With nothing to lose, I fire a magnetic torpedo which hits and down she goes too. I wait a little and think my last words "that's all of them, no one else approaching".

Fire torpedoes at the juiciest targets, surface and start gunning away at the... defenseless convoy.

Cracking and blasting sounds, screams, blood everywhere... now I know better. There is always "one more" escort

1. I knew I should have backed up my career files to another location! (after losing a patrol with 160,000 tons!)

2. I was just too greedy!

3. He can't find me at 100 meters!

4. Hurry up and fix that frakkin' leak!

5. What do you mean the forward batteries are destroyed!

6. Where are my patrol planes, Goering!??

7. Am I ever gonna get out of 1939?

8. I've been in this chair way too long.
