Default Such a stupid mistake to make!!!!!

I hear the props of a RN task force in my area and already thinking of the glory of a battleship kill on my first patrol, I surface to intercept them....push the TC to max. Game judders a bit and plummets to 1tc to find myself being battered by the task force.

Naturally I was killed.....but that was the first time i've seen/heard a battleship fire its guns in SH3!!!!!

And I may have died....but it was damned impressive!!!!!!

DC Attacks are just as fun. I dont know whether its in stock or just GWX but hearing the battleship firing at you and literally hearing the rounds go screaming past you as they zero in on your sub. Lots of fun.

Held back a bit on the 'tc' so you had a little notice period that you were getting near to your final resting place
