What is That?

Can anyone please tell me what is that?

First time I see something like that. It came out of Bristol Aug/1940.

It's the biggest submarine in the world.

Really, it's a convoy which has an AI sub as it's lead vessel or it's being stalked/reported by a wolfpack.

Well muchacho I believe that is a freindly wolfpack.

I've intercepted a few of those convoys but each time there were no subs but quite a few damaged ships, at first the blue fooled me and I went in on the surface, waving to the ships with a smug look on my face, till the destroyers started firing at me! DIVE!

You have to get as close as possible until you can clearly see their faces in your peri. If you remember some of them, you can surface and wave. Otherwise attack or sneak away

First time I've seen that, too.

Maybe the British tried disguise as german subs so that they get some spies into german uboat bunkers

Or they wanted to lure real german submarines to a fake convoy attack pack and led them into a trap :hmm:

bigboywooly · 06-21-07, 02:43 PM

lol much the same as the other post re Subs in convoys

The way the game works the subs have to be part of the convoy the whole time
Start to finish
Unless sunk

As its blue (

) its a Ge sub following and reporting in
You may get kucky to find 1,2 or 3 AI subs when you get there
Or they could be all sunk

I came across one and the AI sods stopped and left me in the thick of it.

ReM · 06-21-07, 04:20 PM

I came across one that had no escorts left...looks like my fellow KaLeuns did the dirty work for me....
The convoy offered easy pickings.....
