Default Scapa Flow: The East Approach

U-47
04-09-39, U-47 is about to enter Scapa Flow from the eastern approach.

Almost midnight, a VW DD forced U-47 to submerge.

More to come...

Has anyone tried getting into Scapa Flow at night from the east?

WARNING: there are alot of wrecked ships.

I am now trapped in the harbour by 7 DDs, and no way out.

After I take care of a med tanker and a freighter then I will deal w/ the DDs.

Slowly running out of Co2, will need to leave soon.

Getting in is easy - you just go through the Eastern approach. Finding and attacking a target's pretty easy, too.

Getting out, now there's the problem.

Err...U cant run out of CO2..becose that is what you breath out..
If you dont surface you can get out of O2(the only thing that our body can use from air,which is actualy mixture of gasses),but trust me you will finaly get a lot of CO2,so many actualy that it will poison all your crew and make ghost-ship of your Uboat
