Do ships sink faster in rough seas?
I see a convoy and the waves splash across the deck, things are rough.
When hit with a torpedo will it sink faster?

Yes, rough seas can help the ship to go down quicker.
But it can also make your torpedoes premature, donīt use magnetic pistols.

Most definitely....in fact, in extremely bad weather you'll occasionally witness small vessels being overwhelmed by the sea state :arrgh!:

Ah, jimbuna was faster - indeed, I've seen a tramp fighting with flooding at its bow when I attacked a convoy in rough seas.

The downside can be that you sink such a vessel and get no renown because the game attributes it to the weather instead of you :arrgh!:

In rough weather I often use magnetic pistol so that torpedo will travel deeper, not pop to the surface and explode. :yep:
