Default GWX Dunkirk

Hey out there to all you GWX fans, I was wondering if anyone has tried to attack Dunkirk during its evacuation. I'm very tempted to and have already sunk a armed trawler on the way in. Now I'm a few miles out from the port but the weather isn't helping much. But theres alot of tonnage just waiting to be sunk, they are as follows: British 5-6 passanger and freighters and 7-8 destoryers, French 2-3 cargos and passenger, and 1-2 warships, Polish 2 warships, Irish 1 cargo. All of these are in the port. Should I risk it or abort this mission?

I've always thought about it, but never have. Too many meaty convoys in the middle of the Atlantic for me to try that.

Sink them all. Don't forget, it's not very deep there.


P.s I'll see you in the Big U-Boat in the Sky.:rotfl:

One word comes to me here: MINES

But the prize is there

For some reason I always thought the mines would have been just an idea and were only drawn in the maps - till I tried to get away from escorts in the shallow water east of england and wanted to see the charges hit the boot in external view. Instead I saw the boat running straight for one single mine. Spooky.

Dunkirk?

Well worth it. I was there for the BEF evacuation. Massive tonnage for me and I got to watch a Luftwaffe raid. Then I watched them get shot down, one nearly crashed on my submerged boat







Not the best screen shots in the world, but I was somewhat occupied at the time.
