What a childish tactic!
Don't you think you should put more thought into your battleplan?!


Should be fun to watch. Looking forward to seeing how long Grey can prolong defeat.

I guess I'll claim the light cruiser Kuma. Not out of any real attachment, beyond the fact its the first Japanese warship I ever torpedoed in Silent Hunter IV.

It'd be funny if it died to the Skipjack in this game.

Are you going to be going for a second wave at Pearl? Or are other matters more pressing?

Also sign me up for I-168!

A true grog would withdraw the fleet, since despite being fully fueled in the game, in actuality they were really low on fuel at the time they launched the attack and couldn't stay on station a second day. :v:

People are claiming "Lucky" ships to follow their progress through the war until their inevitable sinking.

People get into it! Hence the "Grey Hunter sinks the British Navy" jokes that continue in his LPs to this day. He also received mostly joking death threats about if the CV Enterprise ever got sunk.

The day by day format can make things really tense. Nothing like seeing a precious carrier or something get torpedoed and anxiously wait each day for reports of whether its finally sunk or made it back to a friendly port for repairs, and then realizing that it will be undergoing repair for months before we see it again.

Sink all the enemy shippies, sir, the enemy shippies. Our shippies like being unsunk.

There is no way all those battleships have been sunk. I refuse to believe it.

It would be nice if we could bag that carrier though.

Don't disrespect biplane torpedo bombers. Ask the Bismarck about Swordfishes. :colbert:
