First off a Merry xmas to u all :woot:
Started a new construction 42 last week.. spent an hour each evening for 7 days trying to hit parker...Fail :down:

I tried everything, i got some perfect shots in the end but regardless of having the shallowest depth, impact or magnetic i failed with the torps just sailing through the boat :doh:

7 hours! i gave up & started a 43 new construction... let u know if better.

I guess maybe a few (too many) duds but it got me so frustrated even after following so many tutorials ( manual ).

Thing is i managed a year ago to crack this but maybe not on year 42.

I know i can do a basic manual hit sometimes , but it hurts if you get so many fails for some reason or other..lets see if 43 helps.

Reading "Clear the bridge" now.. Fantastic :yep:

Should just turn off duds and prematures for the new construction and use Mark 10's.I doubt they would expend live Mark 14's for practice anyway, they was a shortage in 42.
