It was made entirely with footage from the 2005 combat season, and soundtrack "into the deep", by Helen Trevillion. Anyway, this has just about everything from the first half of 2005, with warships sailing, shooting, sinking, getting mined, getting rescued, and getting recovered. It even includes a particularly daring rescue by me of my disabled (but still armed and very dangerous) Scharnhorst. It may not look like much, but boy was I scared. Also, pay attention to what people say in the background. It may not always be very loud, but it's really funny!
thats all for now. I will upload more as I create them.

whats the point in convoy ships
bigdawny 5 months ago
@bigdawny Convoy ships can score a bunch of points for their team if they successfully complete a lap around the convoy course. It isn't easy, though, so protecting the transport is very important.

What exactly are you using to blow holes into other boats? BB's maybe????
trainmandan05 7 months ago
@trainmandan05 Quite right. We use CO2-powered pneumatic cannons firing low-velocity ball bearings. the standard .177" bb is the smallest size that we shoot, but it is indeed one type of ammunition used in this club.

hey guys! do the ships stioll work after they sink?
HedgehogHappieness 8 months ago
@HedgehogHappieness Yes they do. Because we expect our ships to sink, most club members make preparations ahead of time to speed recovery. Most ships are equipped with an emergency marker float for recovery, easy-to-access electronics for quick drying, and other preparations. One ship I know of sank eight times in one day, and my ships can literally sail back to port after sinking.
