Gravely Disappointed

Hanomag · 02-27-08, 11:49 AM

Kaluens,

In a forum where you can ask and get answered questions like;

How many nicks did the props of U-(insert any number here) have when it was sunk?

What was the exact thickness of the IXb pressure hull?

What caliber was the average Tramp Steamers AA weapons?

What did Prien have for breakfast the day of his demise?

I am completely flabbergasted when;

I am bragging to my GF's father, who served on The Jeffers during WW2, how realistic the game is and he asks;

"Is my DD in there?"

"Sure it is!" I reply. Brimming with bravado and the utmost confidence. "What class is it?"

"Gleaves/Benson."

I pour over the files and I am stunned, I grow pale and faint. Iconceivable. I immediately post on the forums http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=131504

But even more shocking ...after numerous (57) views noone replies.

Truly this cannot be??? Are the L33t Ubers of the SH3 forums stumped??

Wait I know... it must be in a previous post or in a manual somewhere and I missed it! There are no answers from the SH3 Forum Gods because they know the answer is somewhere I should have already looked! That must be it!

But in the background I can hear that WW2 DD crewman laughing...

"Hows that realistic submarine game of yours? har har."

Indeed, kaleuns are supposed to work together, help eachother.

You all should be shamed!

HOW DARE YOU KALEUNS LET THIS HAPPEN?

I have full info on the Benson DD at the below site under the US WWII Warships tab. Hope this renews your faith in the forum.
