[Kimmers]

last patrol i was on, i took on a pretty huge convoy and after the smoke had cleared and the convoy had moved on, i realized there was still a small merchant sitting there powerless. As i set my sights on him, i realized i no longer had any torpedoes. i also had no deck gun.

so i rammed him.

to my surprise, my XXI at full speed did no visible damage to him, despite having charged him at ahead full.

i once accidentally rammed a ship in my earlier days while submerged, and it resulted in a sunk british destroyer.

so my question is: why does this merchant live while the destroyer lies at the bottom?
