What are your thoughts,
stick to a slightly unrealistic model but have the gamey dealing with floods etc.
Go close to real and make ramming a death sentance as well a duelling DDs.

One thing ive always tried to achieve with my own game, is what id call a "das boot experience". I want stuff breaking, i want to have to prioritize repairs, to have to make decisions, the wrong one meaning an out of contol or ruptred boat, So from that perspective, i like to have a gamey feeling dealing with flooding etc.
I think dueling DD's should be a death sentence, but Ramming, i think should utterly trash the boat, but not outright kill it. A ramming i think should smash equipment and drop the H.I to like 20% or something. Surviable, but unable to dive. However that point is probably moot since the DD would then just blow you out of the water with its guns.
U-333 was rammed and survived. Rare occurance, but it happened.
