![]() According to the recon photo you might as well regard everything on this atoll as a target! |
MiGMan's Combat Diary | Well everything on this atoll may have been a target - but as a
corollary of that, everything on this atoll was regarding me as a target!
Some kind of ship was throwing up tracers but the action was so furious I couldn't make out what it was. I paused the sim and panned around I could see it was in fact... a submarine! |
