Aslo, whether or not a ship explodes is not really based on what it is carrying but on whether or not you score a critical hit. This can still happen in GW. I think I did read somewhere though that the game only reconizes a hull shot when determining a critical hit and not an under keel shot. THis is not caused by GW.
I believe critical hits via keel shots are still functional. I sank another Large Cargo with a keel shot under the bridge and broke it in half. I also sank a Nelson with a keel shot under the turrets and instantly got the "She's going down..." message.
