Robert,

I have done this many times with circling DDs, because I cannot control entirely a non-automated shot, so some shots end up in the bow. They are areally close shots <600m. with steam torpedos on fast setting (impact)

I got some very nice, fast sinkings with bow in the water, then 90 degree angle and in the bottom!

Once I did this with a liner, and it was really impressive.

This trick seems to be bery goog with really fast ships. It gives you the impression that the ship sinks faster because of the speed that the water rushes in.
