Well, as I mentioned earlier my attacks are pretty good, I was just a little put off by not being able to sink ships with RFB's damage mod. I still think that the pendulum has swung a little too far in the opposite direction from stock. Still, reservations aside, I still far prefer the modified version to stock.

Tonight it required 4 torpedoes to put down an old medium merch. (8000 grt) in late 1942 - it had already been hit once in the forward hold, engine room and bows. That would finish off any ship, but 2 hours later it was still afloat. It req'd a 4th to put her down. That's stretching it a bit. I strongly doubt that merchant ships were ever that tough. That's the same # of torpedoes that sank the Royal Oak, if I'm not mistaken.

Perhaps the flooding times need tweaking.
