...another question... if using magnetic pistols, shouldn´t it be possible to fire at a ship from BEHIND? The magnetic field would be the same as in a 90 degree angle, you just have to aim more carefully.

It often annoys me that I had to reload my torps under a convoy only to see at periscope depth that the merchants are crawling away from me.

Cheers, AS
