With the escorts I have had to use a compromise due to the way that the ships compartments are configured. So for the escorts I have 400 HP's. At max torpedo damage HP's of 180, this equates to 2.2 torpedos and at min torpedo damage HP's of 120 then 3.3 torpedos. No WWII escort has ever survived 3 torpedos that I am aware of and these settings are designed to replicate that.

So as we now do not run out of HP's you will have to actually 'sink' the ship if you do not acheive a critical hit. Note to all, the cargo space on a ship now has a Critical Hit chance and is at a lot higher value than that of the engine room or even the fuel bunker.

For the NYGM Ship Damage Mod the 88mm deck gun's max HP's is currently 12, so to go toe to toe with an escort and expire it's 400 HP's will take about 33 hits, at min value of 6, 66 hits, at the average value 44 hits. So the chances of expiring it's HP's are minimal.

wait wait. God damn it i dont understand how u modders do it, but its awesome. I thought you took the HP Out and incorporated sinking by flooding. So 1 torpedoe, put in the right spot and with a bad simulated flood control team could sink a tanker or c3. I didnt know there was still HP, so basically..ugh..forget it. So we cant take out a ship by totally reducing its HP anymore, but we can do it with "critical chance" (stil not sure about that) and massive flooding.
I do have NYGM sinking mod and it seems great, longer ship sinking teams and lots of uncertainty. I only played thru a partial patrol with this mod and i sank 3 ships, small merc, troop transport(2 torps), and a LARGE MERCHANT which took 4 torps!
2 were poorly aimed and hit in front of the ship, 1 hit directly amidships, still no visible sinking patterns, and 1 more amidships, which sank 2 mins later...
