I have had several dud torpedoes both electric and steam and have been increasing my torpedo man's skills to compensate.

My 1st question is, do they become more reliable as the war progresses?

In SH3 I liked to use torpedoes set to magnetic and set the depth just beneath the targets depth and so it made little difference to the angle of attack so long as the torpedo passed under the target and it was a very good tactic.

So my 2nd Question is this. Does this work in SH5 as I have tried several times and the torpedoes just pass under the vessel and carry on their merry way.

3rd and final question. Should I be using magnetic or impact setting?

Thanks in advance.
