I took some damage before I got to periscope depth. They are not like a regular merchant, they actually go out of their way to attack. Nobody else has seen these?

I know what you are talking about.The reason they are so accurate is they like most merchants in TMO are set to "veteran" skill level, so they are accurate esp at close range.You can change this by going to the mission editor and opening the Jap_coastal_Merchants files, find the ones that say trawler and change their skill level.I did this to fishing boats in TMO a long time ago because they were just way too effective with their 20 MM fire.Just find the ones that spawn armed merchants....a few in japanese home islands and a few around Indochina(Vietnam)
