The Diving Dutchman

The Story Behind It

There's a rumor among the Europan colonies about the sightings of a ghost sub that was seen at several places in the depths of Europa.

Many brave crews from every colony in Europa tried to confirm the rumor by going to the place where the last sightings were reported. Well, they're all never returned, thus confirming the rumor.

However, not everyone believed that rumor. Some say that it's a story made to scare the children, others say it's a random bullsh!t fabricated by the Separatists to lure adventurers and treasure hunters alike so they can take their supplies, others also say that sub is operated by the more advanced Thalamus that gained control to not only the sub's weaponry, but the entire sub.

The people of Europa started to name that sub The Diving Dutchman, named after the legendary ghost ship on Earth, The Flying Dutchman, that is cursed to never make port and sail the oceans forever.

Features

• Ghost Mode: It is basically silent running mode... I think Ghost Mode is a more fitting name :D like normal silent running mode, it will "turn off" the reactor, use batteries as power source, reduce engine power to 20%, turn off all main lights and turn on all emergency lights. Make sure to turn your sonar to passive and don't move around.
