I run SHIII GWX with several mods, Hsie realism, torpedo damage mod, etc. Historically, the Germans had problems with their magnetic pistols in their electric and steam torps early war. The sensor was too sensitive, or something along those lines. I have been using all G7a steamers early in the war despite the visible bubble trail, using magnetic pistols, and have been having much success. I was just curious what depth delivers the most catastrophic blast? I have been firing about a meter below the draft/keel of my targets. Is this the correct depth setting for magnetic pistols or should I be setting them shallower/deeper?
