On the other hand, if the merchants' deck guns were less accurate it would encourage unhistoric gameplay. Pretty much every account I've read says the same thing - when the merchant opens fire, the u-boat doesn't hang around to find out how accurate it is. The boat dives and is not seen again. You know that if the merchant guns were historically accurate the player would brave it out and hope for the best. It's that conviction that you will lose and die that keeps us honest.
