Yep
. In the early days of SH3 some players bragged and advised that the way to take out a Flower was to surface behind it so it couldn't use its cannon. I pointed out the cheating nature of that tactic by referring to Nicholas Monsarrat, author of
The Cruel Sea, who actually did serve on corvettes during the war. In one of his many stories he recounts how they pounded a u-boat into surfacing. The boat came up behind them and the crew attempted to man the deck gun. The 40mm killed everyone on the deck and bridge before they could even get the cork out, and the surviving crew quickly surrendered. That's the way it should work in any game as well.
