That is true of impact shots as well. Two hundred yards is a bit close, but if it's a trailing shot there's a chance that it will work. As long as the torpedo travels the required 300 yards before getting to the target it will arm.

I know the feeling. I just played an August '39 start in SH3, and after two months at sea I returned home with exactly one kill. I'm currently in an early war mission with SH4 and OM, and it's starting to look like the same thing. Patience, my son.
