I seen broken backs but both pieces sank correctly. However on one occassion I miss cued 4 torps all of which hit the bow blowing the front away completely. All well and good except it sank by the stern :o

Umm, the bow is the pointy end, the rounded end with the propellers is called the stern.:rotfl: Pointy end goes forward....

Good shot, though. :up:

I actually broke a large modern tanker with one fish, hit it about 1/3 from the bow, setting was 5 meters i think, hit was 1-2 meters from keel at least, got the kill instantly but the ship continued to float for quite some time..

Had another large tanke who I could't kill with 5-6 torps, and my last rounds with the deck gun - she just kept steaming on in 4-5 knots.. tried to ram her even, but no succes in that either.. :damn:

It kills you when you got 10 000 tons just in front of you and absolutely no weapons what so ever left on your tin can to kill it with :cry:

So far in SHIV I've been sent to put agents ashore and haven't even seen that many ships let alone shoot them in two. For some reason I usually seem to hit them about 20ft from the bow causing them to make enough water to submerge.
