Thanks for posting that, Rhodes. It reminds me of the discussion on the General Topics board a while back, about battleships moving sideways when they fire their guns. I've heard such things before, that the boat doesn't really move much; but I have also heard that the concussion can distort bulkheads and knock the crew off their feet, just as the big guns can have the same effect on the ships firing them.
On the other hand, I like the mod that makes the boat roll about when under attack. I guess the perception is important to all of us.
