I've seen more girls interestingly enough on this forum that play SH3 than any other game I've played! I know two girls that play Day of Defeat but thats about it.

Its like every man's dream! A woman that gets a rush out of firing flak guns!

SO tell me shegeek, is there a Mr. shegeek?

I tried out a patrol in 1943 and reminded myself why I don't get far. On my first patrol I used all my renown to get upgrades for my Type XIC and then headed out to my assigned grid in the BE area. On my way there I manage to catch a couple of merchants but on the fourth day it must have been a gale of a wind of the seas because the waves were almost always going over my entire boat. Somehow a couple of bombers found with my radar (amazing enough) and decided to make my day. I crashed dive, not being able to man the flak guns. As I'm hit 10m and think I am safe in my uboat my boat is thrown out of the water by twin 500 pound bombs (the first one lifted titled my uboat to almost 60 degrees and the second one killed 10 men in my aft quarters. I thought I was okay because I had not recieved the instant then "bang" there it is. I wish you could decide when your dead and not some silly formula for death. Anyway to change/disable this ?

You need to use the dead stick approach, and fire with both your rear and fore tubes. One at tankers, two at troop transports. Wait until the stragglers have fallen back and the escorts resumed with the convoy before dropping them with torps/deck guns.

If you're not in a type 2, there's no reason to ever come back with less than 30k tons. There are entirely too many convoys.

I dont mind the game "calculating" my demise. I dont care for the "bang your dead" screen. There should at least be some cut scene with dramatic music.

No less than 30 tons..... sigh... and I thought I was pretty good LOL

Yea I usually take what I get... plus I suck at convoy attacks... every time I do get a good position for the attack (90% AOB viewing all ships) I get detected so Its to the point I just go in through the front, do a single attack dive to 125 and hide

Just this minute attacked a convoy
11th Feb 1940 in the Wolfpack campaign in a IXB

Been shadowing for a while before being spotted by a corvette
Took him out then attacked by Frigate
Took him out with a bow on shot and that left me with a convoy to myself and no escorts

Managed 10 ships for over 60k tons before breaking off to bring in torps from the outside

Been ordered to join hunt for another convoy now tho to form up a wolfpack

Could have finished off the last 5 mercs but orders are orders
