In the thick fog I ran into a ship. Literally - we were pressed against each other - and I was too low for her to train her guns. I was out of deck gun rounds - so I just went merrily blasting away. She didn't sink, but her engines were done and I was able to position for a torpedo launch.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that range does seem to have an effect on the round's capability. When you mentioned heavy fog, it reminded me of a similar "close-up" encounter I had.
