Hi all,

New to the game, having a hard time nailing the merchantmen with torpedo's in the naval academy. Once they're alerted to my presence, they always dodge my torpedos at around 900 yards. I find that when I get real close they dont go off at all...

Can someone advise me the optimal range to nailing an evading merchie without going into the torp's min range?

Also having a hard time sinking merchies in the deck gun tutorial. Tried to go for waterline shots, but always run out of ammo before I can sink more than 2.

Thanks for the help

John
