Default My ten rules for torpedo evasion

Hello fellow submarines. After getting killed several times by torpedoes that I evaded because I got cocky, I decided to post some of my rules here to help fellow captains.

1) The only speed is Flank Speed.
2) Cavitation is really bad. A Torpedo in the stern is even worse.
3) If the torpedo is locked on to you remember., you have 3 dimensions. Use them.
4) If the torpedo is high, go low. If it is low., go high.
5) If you dodge a torpedo do not go silent. The torpedo can still hear you and you just lost manoeuverability.
6) Noise Makers buy you time. Speed buys you life.
7) If you see a torpedo close by, it is coming for you. Always. Do not try to sneak past it. It won't work.
8) The safe distance from a torpedo is 5k yards... After you hear the explosion.
9) your torpedoes can kill you.
10) The safest place for a torpedo to be is 10kyd away and low on fuel. Failing that, try to keep them in your stern.
