Default Raid on Gibralter

After my steler performance at Malta and Alexandria I decided to see if I could top my self, so, I decided raid Gibralter.



At 20K I dived, wondering if it would be my last one



Wothin 7 min. I knew this wouldent be easy.



EKK MINES!!!


Geting close.


First kill.


Im dead!


ALIVE!!!


While I did it I dont recomend it for all but the ballseist.

I tried going into scarpa flow with the GW mod and didn't even get near the area i spotted 5 destroyers roaming around directly in front of me range 5000 yrd or so. I ordered a 180 turn and got the hell out of there!

In the stock game i use to visit scarpa flow often.

Nice work, Wilhelm. I wish I could do that, too, but a week of playing isn't probably long enough to try such things. For now I'll keep staying as far from the Gibraltar port as possible while goin' through the strait, but maybe the other day I'll tell ya how much I've sunk there.

I find Scapa is a piss of piece in GW due to the Eastern exit. I can run at 7/8 metres with my decks awash on diesels, and then dive when I clear the barricades.

Sink a few ships, and sneak out to the west running awash once I'm far enough away.
