Death by what?

STEED · 02-19-07, 12:45 PM

I transfered to the Med in my big sexy IX/D2 and on my third patrol MARCH 1943 I avoided a destroyer for a good two hours got the all clear so I decided to surface and the time I got to the surface half my crew were dead. Yes you heard me right, two thirds of my petty officers and a third of my regular crew were dead and the rest of my crew were crapping themselves. So what the heck killed them?

Bernard farted while the hatches where closed and the oxigen level was below 5%

a reasonable theory not?:rotfl:

Kpt. Kozloff · 02-19-07, 12:51 PM

Your crew must be allergic to oxygene, true submariners!

P.S. Seriously though, it might've been CO2.

Morts · 02-19-07, 12:54 PM

cant have been if hes only been submerged for 2 hours
it takes 25-30 hours ingame for oxygen level to be almost flat

STEED · 02-19-07, 12:54 PM

No not the Co2 and no not Bernard.

My crew do not have fleas or crabs.

you didn't surface in a minefield, did you?

darkfin · 02-19-07, 01:01 PM

I've had this about 3 times now. The CE keeps reporting tower damaged. When this happens I have to hit the escape key asap on surfacing or I'll lose the entire crew. Even with a fast esc I lose about half the crew. I've always been in deep water in the middle of the ocean. Go figure.

No mines,aircraft,ships or any other subs in the area and no damage on surfacing.

Kracken?

USS Sea Tiger · 02-19-07, 12:53 PM

By chance did your rats have Fleas they shared with the crew?

Did you serve ample amounts of fruit? Scurvy??

Is there a crew member named Jason,, or Hannible Lecter among your crew?

I was thinking the same ... what is doing a IX/D2 in the MED ??? :hmm:

A too big boat for a very dangerous waters.

Perhaps they died by a leaking in the battery cells and saltz water, it makes clorine, this poisonous gas is lethal in a dived boat.

There must be a rational explanation. I will crack open my DVD collection of Voyage To The Bottom Of The Sea and see if I can discover one.

Right now, my bet is on a WWI U-Boat skipper coming back as a ghost and taking over the body of your Exec, and then killing the crew. (The great episode I'm referring to is "The Phantom Strikes").

Well I had to help out you poor over stretched VII Captains out.

Well I have hit jackpot and now I am needed else where.

GSpector · 02-19-07, 11:55 PM

Just a thought, do you have sabotage turned on. The above comment about the battery sounded good.

Of course there is another thought that someone mentioned in another thread. you said your sub had no Fleas or rats, how about Cockroaches

. It was stated that 1 sub had over 6 Million. I've heard that some types have been known to kill:hmm: Just another thought.
