Wow! That sounded pretty authentic. You've seen the same thing I have with the DDs. If you shoot from anything outside 500 yards they just do their little dance and evade the torpedoes. And with the little tonnage from sinking them it isn't worth it to bracket them with 3 torpedoes, especially with the limited number of torps in an S-Boat. With your dag-blasted torpedo mod I HAVE started firing two at them.

Makes me want to do another S-Boat career!
