Do you think it's possible?

I've been trying to think of a way to get my last Hurrah's out of this game before SH4 comes out, and i wonder if a 1 million ton challenge is it.

I mean, for sure you'd have to start at the begining of the war when its a turkey shoot, and id probably have to un-nerf the tonnage ive reduced in my GWX tweak pack , but i really wonder if its possible. You'd have to sink some BB's or something i'd think. I also figure you'd also want expend all your torpedo's with the smallest number of days at sea possible to get back in, and out again with a fresh load. In short, i think you'd have to be aggressive as hell. I wonder if it's possible, and by what year. A 100K patrol in GWX is quite possible though.

So you figure 10 patrols at around 60 days tops, 31 days between patrols... im guessing 1 patrol could last (worst case scenario) 3 months. Thats 4 patrols a year, at 100K (best case scenario), so lets say 80K instead... times 4 patrols a year, equates out to about 320K a year , so in 3 years youd have 960K.

So assuming you started in 1939, you probably wouldnt reach the 1M mark tell sometime in 1943? Hmmm wow, that could take weeks or a month or two real world time playing a few hour every night.

:hmm:
Sounds like a challenge for a basket case.
