AAAAAAAAARRRGHH!!!

At least I'm inside with the women, and I will blindfold myself whenever I leave or enter the ship.

I'm gaining on the convoy and there's still about 8 hours of darkness left...

Great my current campaign got messed up by SH3 Commander.
Now I got to start over again, only I wonder when and where.
Don't feel like waiting a month in 1939.

Patrol 14 of U-47

We were assigned further south than ever before...grid DT26. The boys were a bit put-out at having to spend Christmas and New Year's at sea, but we made up for it by sinking a Passenger-Cargo off Spain about 2 days out. Our Christmas present came when we attacked a convoy off SW Spain. It was comprised of various small ships, and KL Hossel was eyeing a Small Tanker on the far side (tankers are more valuable than freighters, in the Kaleun's esteemed opinion), when we sighted an Auxiliary Cruiser at the back of the convoy, and much closer, I might add! Four torpedoes fired, then down to 67 meters to wait out any depth-charges. Four hits, the target sinks, and the convoy hurries on to avoid further attacks. No DCs forthcoming. A Merry Christmas indeed!

Returned to port just after the New Year, having sunk just two ships, but racked up 15,938 tons, bringing our total to 297,133 tons. KL Hossel was flown back to Berlin to meet with the Fuhrer, who congratulated him on being the second U-boat skipper to receive the Golden Oak Leaves. (Von Harris was the first.)

Ship #1: Passenger-Cargo Ship

Ship #2: Auxiliary Cruiser

Auxiliary cruiser are tasty targets.

How many torpedoes did it take for this one?

Thanks!
I did do just that. Sank a mid-sized tanker, a mid-sized freighter, an ore freighter and an aux. cruiser, all from that same convoy. A total of about 35.000 tons. Not bad for a night's work!

Four torpedoes were fired; the third hit proved mortal. I'm two for two so far; two ACs sighted, two sunk.

Now if I can just figure out how to modify the renown files needed to secure quicker promotions, I'm good, seeing as how I just won the last medal winnable in the game (Gold Oak Leaves).

I always liked SH4 but the bad reviews for this one kept me from it. I see now that there are mods to fix almost everything so I bought the game on amazon brand new for $8 and just finished the first mission.
