You should make the 10.5 cm shells twice as powerful as the 8.8 cm shells. in shells.zon.

With half the quantity, they were twice the power. This was a advantage when trying to sink a ship quickly, less time exposed on the surface, using a 60 second average reload time for both.

In real life, the 10.5 shells were twice as powerful as the 8.8 cm. Plus they were twice as big, so ony half could be carried.

Only the IX boats were big enough to mount the bigger gun platform of the 10.5 cm.

Since the IX boat carries more torps, you run out quick. Then again, there were milkcows to keep these Uboats loaded full at sea.
