Default Suggestions for "How would you like to sink Nelson?"

So here's the tale so far:

The Norway assault is going on, and I've come across the big star himself,
the Nelson


I bitchslapped him with 3 eels (1 dud :d) + one from the butt, now his' engines are knocked out, and a sitting duck. Sinking slowly.

I also shot a torpedo between turrets 1# & 2# which detonated under the ship (magnetic pistol)




So subsim....

Where should I put the eel that ends his miserably life (and causing huge, badass explosion of instant kill)

Tell me where, what eel depth, which pistol etc.


Pictures will be followed

PS. Don't care about the DD's, I'm an expert of dodging the suckers

Do tell, since on a random patrol the other night I was seen at 8000m by a DD and within 2 hours they'd nailed me continously and sunk me. Nothing I did could shake them.

Oh, and a torpedo 2m below keel between the rear turrets.

Depents on do you run 100% realistic or with the freecam. Cuz' I got 80%

What I do is when the DD is coming, I go flank speed, turn to the side where it's coming. You must be atleast 400 meters away before executing the dodge (if your depth is 15-25), otherwice, you get your ass full of DC's.

After this, I usually go periscope depht and sink the DD, but not during times like this when I got juicier targets on my area.

Its that simple, but of course, when on the late years, the hedgehogs are a problem.
What I do is to try to avoid its front, dodge dodge. depht 25 is minimum

Less than 100m i keep quiet, and pretend im not there- no matter what comes in my periscope view, if its escorted.
Made that mistake few times, thats why i never lived to see the red star over Raichstag.

I've sunk the Nelson during its actions in Norway at the Battle of Narvik. I discovered her after the battle was over. I managed to fool the DD's or atleast half of them by going to flank speed long enough for the DD's to know that someone was there. Then I dove to 100 meters at on slient running and let the DDs pass me without them knowing I was there. Soon after passing the DD screen I went up to periscope depth and set up two shots to go 1 meter under the keel of the Nelson. Opened tubes one and two, fired shots at 560 meters away from target. Dove to 250 meters and headed for the left side of the fjord. Stopped E-Motors and waited. One hour later started to move inbound to Narvik and docked there.

Oh, and also, I sunk a coal tender (f*cker was sailing under Denmark's flag)


How, herr Kaleun, I can be more agressive than this?

When you parade your crew on deck dropping their trousers at them and the cook is at the forefront throwing the rotten vegetables at them
