What did we tell you about not sinking any British warships! You will make them feel weak!


Good job Kaluen!

well ok heres the FULLY detailed if you wanna know how i survived
Ok once i got 1100 meters away i let loose with a salvo of two...one headed for the bow and the other the rudder (obviously to keep it from moving and to try and blow her in one with a good bow shot...dont worry but Balz if you see this ill do it to u muther) Well for sum reason mabye the speed i dont even know cause it shouldnt of happened at that range the stern targeted eel hit and bounced off. The bow had great impact and actually set the front on fire. So now im down to one still loaded torps. O by the way whenever i harbor raid to shoot i stop for three simple reasons...so my periscope doesnt make a visible wake, so i can turn silent running off to reload, and to make sure the shot is as perfect as i can get it. So i let loose the last loaded torp which blows directly in the middle and i could now start to see her start to slip away in the water. Then i waited till the three loaded. Bad news though now three screens were flyin towards me( Armed Trawler and two C&W's) So i had to make it quick i lined up all three for the bow and let loose then immidiently dropping my scope and heading out the top left entrance of scapa flow. They all hit and blew here away. Then i just kept hard to porting and hard to starboard...ing? Each time an escort came toward me i simply turn quickly under them it seemed to mess with their pinging (like hey wait hes left o know hes right wait hes straight gettem o damn he turned basically) i think 39 is the only possible time to ever do this kind of manuevering and get away. Finally i just slowly creeped out to the north tip of england and surfaced with like 5% oxygen left. 82% realism GWX 1.03 so this wasnt the easiest of accomplishments. Which i had a bigger sub thought because the revenge class was actually right next to the hood. But i figure the hood is more tons so just lay all ofem into her so i would make sure of the kill. And for a Type IIA thats good. And brag my good sir ill gladly buy us all a round...infact BARTENDER! Order some for the soon to be Bismark crew...sorry boys you can lower those guns no fun for you.
