When he was told about his nickname (at the Yalta Conference I think) he was really put out (insulted). He felt that it was very demeaning.

Nice shot.

Just curious; what happens when you sail into "unlabelled" territory (an area that's not part of SH III's grid system) & sink an enemy ship? I would assume that you still get credit for it but how is it listed? I'm asking because I've never done this. I'm into the 5th patrol of a Mediterranean career & I want to see what's happening around Alexandria & Port Said. Thanks.

@KC

Come to think of it, the only time I've come across an Iowa or Nevada has been in a single or multi mission

I'm pretty sure I've sunk a Nevada in campaign mode before

Edit:
Found it. This was a GWX 2.1 campaign.

Rgr that

I was meaning GWX3.0 though. I wrote a SM called Early Christmas Present (IIRC) which is included with GWX3.0 where Admiral King attempts to transfer Atlantic assetts over to the Pacific theatre via the Panama Canal.....some nice carrots are on offer
