So much for that idea; they can track pretty good. Although, I really wasn't expecting to survive which is why I saved before I tried it. Just wanted to see how fast they'd take me down.

Is there a sure-fire way to take those bigger ships down with one torpedo? Not knowing the weak spot, I fired my torpedo about midway between center and stern hoping to hit something critical. All I managed was to stop it from steaming away.
