Outcasttaes Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 I just played the 6th mission with the new mechanics for torpedo combat. Using 2 Torpedo boats equipped with 3 x single mounts I was able to dispatch the enemy dreadnought in 4 hits. Both boats took damage but stayed afloat long enough to get off 2 salvo each at under 3km. Flotation damage was much more what I would have expected from this era and this made for a much more enjoyable experience. Very balanced change overall.

D'Orleans Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 I agree. A marked improvement with torpedo damage and flooding. Using two TB with 4-18" launchers each in scenario 6. Felt much more realistic. Sank the BB with 4 hits, (2 bow strikes,2 stern) Loving it! 😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akd Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 (edited) Would like to see "reduced" torpedoes for TBs and destroyers give no reloads so there is an option to balance number of launchers (spread) potential against reload potential. Being forced to take two reloads per launcher is a huge amount of weight and vulnerable ammo for a torpedo boat. If we want to keep option for "what-if" crazy torpedo magazine options, there could also be an "extreme" load that would correspond to current "increased." Would also like to see reloads for on-deck torpedoes be a gated technology. Edited October 12, 2019 by akd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
