So, I just got my first kill with this. Torpedo hit a Liberty Cargo in the bow. She slowed down a bit and I started to shoot with my deck gun. Took maybe 10 shots before she was "sunk".

Now, the COOL part was when the fire started to spread from the front.. BLOWING up each part of the ship as it raced to the stern. So much fun!

Thanks so much for this, I've gone from being disappointed every time to ecstatic glee!

Edit: Second kill: Large Steamer. Hit with a single torp just under the super structure. Initial hit took out the engine room. After 5 minutes a noticeable list to starboard appeared. After 20 minutes the water was up to the rails, but she was stable. 5 HE deck gun shots (2 bow, 2 aft and one superstructure) took her out after she stayed afloat for an hour. After being marked as destroyed, she took another 5 minutes to sink.

This is with the Longer Sinking time and More Powerful Torpedos 1.0 loaded btw.

I like this, a lot!
