So, I'm on my second patrol using GWX/SH3C and im beginning to wonder how the new weather mods will look, as my first patrol had very mild weather.
Well....... Bernard's now puking all over the sub, and it ain't his cooking this time. 3-4 days of this so far, and just as the war starts too! Hard to find contacts when your lookouts you tied to the bridge have all drowned, and there aren't any more volunteers. Well the boat got into a harmonic with the waves, and it would go from 15m+ down and pop up to a boat height or two above the waves. I've been running submerged as long as possible, but i gotta get fresh air eventually. Running at flank speed only gets a few knots at best usually. ![]() LOL, just watched a trawler dive so far from plunging into a wave it sank! |

Well yes..... but the crew won't let him anymore. Something about spilled drinks and cracked skulls.

So yesterday, at work, I get in an argument with a security guard at an apartment building. He's not letting us (partner and I, we're Paramedics) into the building, even though somebody called us from inside and probably needs help. After About 15 minutes he lets us in. I find out the guys name is Bernard. Almost asked him to let me take a 'screen shot' of his name badge. Turns out it was a nothing call, but still.
Then Today, we're taking this guy to the loony bin. He keeps ranting about how the CIA is following him. He was paranoid about it so bad he made us drive around the block 3 times to make sure nobody was tailing us. We obliged, more to humor ourselves than anything. When he started yelling that the finger prick we did to check his blood sugar was actually injecting a tracking and growth (??) device into his fingernail. I lost it then and to leave the truck I was laughing so hard. His name, too, was Bernard. Don't see a lot of that name IRL. But they both lived up to the legend. |

![]() ![]() But all I could think when I read that is how much cooler it would be if it said: Smoke on the water. Fire in the sky. Suspect some Tommy with a flare gun may be in area. Will investigate. ![]() I may have to consider a mod that would rewrite all the non-essential immersion radio messages into something that tickles my funny bone. I know a Lolcat version was discussed, but there are prolly way too many messages to do them all that way. |

So during a DC attack, you could be listening to Deep Purple in a deep purple sub. ![]() It's amazing what a creative chef can do with a kitchen knife and pork intestine. Obviously, our men now have gills.
