Salt, pepper, and a dash of diesel

Does anyone else feel there is never enough food ?

Will there ever be ?

Well we have plenty of canned food. But we always run out of fresh food too soon. Especially the Hoochie Woochie Cakes that we get from the base before leaving. Compliments of Kapt. J.S. Balz I'm sure.........

Flakgun + broaching whales = dinner.........In coastal waters, my deckguncrew is issued with fishingpoles or, failing that, potatoe masher grenades for a bit of dynamite fishing.



Have a nice day

Any more fresh food will rot before it can be eaten. You have been given exactly what you need for a patrol. Do as you're told.

It's not the quantity, it's the lack of quality. filthy greasemonkeys can't cook.

After sinking a large freighter this evening, It sat to a meal of ecrevettes au mayonaisse, soupe Breton de poisson and gigot perigourdine. A meal suitable for the great seaman that I am.
The cook sprinkled lice powder instead of powdered sugar on the tarte de pommes Normande. I made him eat it. It will be a few days 'til he can participate in choir practice again..

So far, this patrol, 30,000 BRT. 10 torpedoes left

We may have all seen the propaganda film footage of a u-boat crew hauling aboard a shark. This supplimentary provender certainly went on, and to that view I extend my patrol time in a VIIB to just under two months. Then it's make for a friendly resupplier whether or not I have war material. Is that a reasonable patrol with regards to food and fresh water ?

I haven't lived / made it through to a Type IX, if I ever do. Barring awareness of Luth's foray, what will be the average duration according to crew sustenance on these bigger boats ?

With not enough interaction with Command in this software we tend to be left to our own devices. Sh3Commander will introduce ambiance factors via "Date" Files, will rotate crew members to "other boats", even retire a skipper after a given number of variables. Is it possible with these Mods and Enhancement Programs to limit a boats patrol to its crew habitability ?

Hmm not sure which side that would be better propaganda for. Sharks ain't what you'd call fine eating.

Maybe not, but you pay through the nose to eat it!

One thing really pisses me off royally, is these people that catch sharks, cut off their fins and then through the poor bugger back into the water. All so they can make shark fin soup. I think that is disgusting reprehensible cruelty. The shark can't swim it can't do anything it literally just bobs there or sinks straight to the bottom. Where it either starves to death, or more likely, something else comes and eats it. Sometimes I wish I had a U-boat so I could torpedo the boats that do such a thing. Vicious I know but I feel animals of all kinds are worthy of some respect. Except rats...
