Jittery pre-war Kaleun

toodrunk · 04-25-10, 08:50 PM

I was on a GWX pre-war patrol, 23 Augustish. Tracked for a little while a sonar contact, surfaced, and made way to it. Spotted it a short while later and dove.

Started making out the details on this potential target, four masts, center stack. Nothing too impressive. I was about to make a range estimate when it disappeared. Not sunk, not exploded, disappeared. I kinda did a double take, tracked the periscope left and right real quick, zoomed out, did a full 360, but to no avail. There was no longer a ship there.

Anybody ever have this happen to 'em?

It probably teleported
to the Nazi Base on Mars.

Materials are need to build new Spaceships to attack Earth someday.

Seriously?
It reached it's final waypoint and disappeared.
You get that from time to time.
Mostly near the Coast as they have reach thier destination.

Wierd. Cool, but wierd. I had not seen this before now. 'course, I haven't been playing all that long. I was actually kind of mad about it because it was shaping up to be a very good "dry run"

stock sh3 patrols will disappear near the coast of their destination. GWX makes them only disappear in or just next to a dock.

Some Ships still go 'POOF' in GWX
even away from the harbors and docks.

That's generally what the guy on the bridge shouts at me as he waves goodbye...."POOF"

Wait 'til you meet zombie ships. They sink but never die. Good stuff for the GWX tales of horror.

Ugh. I had to put five ****ing eels into a cargo ship before she'd even STOP, let alone go down.

LoL, all I did was run a tracking exercise, and she got sucked to another dimension!

I had spent a good amount of time following a convoy once.
Somehow, it turned around, and was coming toward me.
