Default Nice to be back

Nice to be back guys! Has been about 5 years or so and I was posting under a different name (which I forgot), so I created a new account.

I used to play SH3 with the NYMG mod and SH3cmdr, manual targetting and everything (fast 90 method). Love this game I have been in the navy myself and I think it's great.

This time I decided to install the GWX gold mod, because it's a complete package and it involves all aspects of the game. Also I think the ship damage model is very well done as a ship can be destroyed because of structural damage aswell.

Not done downloading yet. Still need SH3cmdr and I'm very interested in H.sie's (and others) Realism mod.

Played a couple of patrols still got depth charged for 10 hours in the Bristol channel and lost my boat.




BIG TY to all modders.

Awesome guys! Thx

Planning an attack on an enemy Task Group which is around 50 nm away from me. I hope I manage to sink one of their battleships.

Anyways I got a quick question: The 'straight run' dial for a Fat torpedo is it in hunderds of meters or in cables?

No battleships, but a nice hit on a cargo tho.

Used 3 regular TIII torpedos missed the first ship I was aiming for but the other two hit and sank a large cargo. The convoy was well protected and I got depth charged for about an half hour, but I launched some decoys and escaped.
