HMS Rodney just now as well Only used four torps this time

I came across a small, defenceless convoy of 2 tankers and a large merchant, large cargo and Tramp Steamer, with all my deck gun rounds in perfect weather, but all of them were Irish and neutral That kind of dampened my spirits though. I came across another new ship though, a Whale Factory boat, zapped that as well

I have seen Nelson and Rodney in a TF that heads directly south along the west coast of Ireland. I have seen this taskforce 3 times so far while hunting around the BE39 area.

This TF has the two bbs, and 4 other warships of varous size.

Yeah, for me Rodney was following a similar course, heading directly south having followed the Irish west coast, though she was in a regular convoy guarded by two Black Swan's

Default HMS Hood and Nelson

Just spotted Hood and Nelson together with 2 french destroyers heading North in the irish sea I was bingo on fuel and Torps though so i had to run away. Not Impressed .


I have got to say i never had this many encounters in the stock SHIII....or for that matter that many holes in my boat either

AYE AYE Sir Full Speed Ahead
As an aside i have just found an interesting glitch whilst shadowing said convoy i was spotted by Hood which promptly opened up on me however between my boat and Hood was 1 of the french destroyers which was promptly blown out of the water. having then saved my game i managed to place myself in between hood and nelson who then proceeded to kick 7 bells out of each other whilst trying to hit me before i died i had the pleasure of seeing a nautical case of fragicide.:hmm: i might have to try this again as on reloading i was given credit for sinking the destroyer.

fuhrers orders are to sink supply ships.. I stay away from everything that shoots.

Taking on the warships is part of fun i was getting bored just taking out merchies so now i make a point of trying to kill the escorts first if you can the payoff in renown can be quite good
