I've come to love the steam torpedoes. I've got a mod that makes electrics run shorter and slower to imitate battery issues. Even without those effects modeled in, I like the options to choose speeds for those really vital targets or attack from quite a ways away.
And if it's more than 1500 m, I tend to use impact shots. In heavy weather, impact only. One shot per 2000 tons or so, usually aimed at the bow or the stern. (Applies to heavily armed warships as well.)
