Popcorn, I'm sorry mate, but at my realism options don't allow for munitions locker/magazine shots easily. but as stated, I know how to sink her with one fish.

I play mostly @ 94% ... sometimes I turn on the external cam so I can get some screen shots. I understand that munition and boiler shots are rough, that's why I suggested making the first hole in the front of the ship. I agree one shot could take her down, but I used two on this one (even though I took this pic when I was thinking of shooting all four at her and getting the hell out of there). I felt like the margin of error could be too large to overlook the need for the second torpedo.
The deck gun though, thats just my style with just about everything... let me go in with guns blazin'



Having said that, here is a pic of me sinking the Nelson with a munitions shot... it was broad daylight out and I surfaced to fight the escort's. My deck crew ended up wasted after a lucky shot so I had to dive. Good luck with that brother.
