In one of my early careers I was using RFB. Because it lowers the power of the deck gun I would get real close to the sampans or fishing boats so I could hit the waterline better. I was real, REAL close to one sampan I attacked. Less than 20 feet I think. As it went down by the bow, I saw a woman come out to the stern. Not only was it the first woman I'd seen in the game, but she was also clearly carrying a baby! Even though it is just a game, it kinda shook me up for awhile.

I still sink sampans and fishing boats when I come across them. I just don't get so close anymore.
