The chance for a critical hit is still there. It's just that it's very small. (See page 19 of the manual).

Which brings me to my next question - does RFB, or SH4 in general simulate the cargo carried on merchants?
As in how quickly a ship can sink with a certain type of cargo? In that case, I think the only cargo that affects a ship's sinking behavior is the ammo loadout (higher chance of a critical hit).

Also, can deck guns on merchants be destroyed, knocked out of action? I recall duelling it out with one merchant and I know I have hit the deck gun implacement few times dead on - nothing happened...
I'd have to check that. Not sure at this time.
