It could be any number of issues, it would be nice if someone else using the latest iteration of RFB could give it a try-
Thanks for the reply  |
I tried the tutorial mission last night (not using RFB) and found that it took about 5-6 Mark XIVs to sink the
Mogami. Four hits spread along the hull would stop her, but she'd just lay there with a list and no indication of sinking anytime soon. One or two more torpedoes would then increase flooding and after a few more minutes waiting, she'd finally roll over and go down. Given that I sank the Takao in the NSM test mission with only two Mark XIVs, and the number of Mark Xs you used, this would seem to suggest that the
Mogami is a much tougher bird than some of the other warships.
Sidenote: I played the tutorial three times to test this and on the first try I hit the target with three torpedoes and the fourth struck my after torpedo room following a circular run. This is the second one I've encountered, and the first fatal one. Oddly enough, the aft torpedo room was destroyed (100/100 damage) yet the crew there were only mildly injured. I put the damage control boys to work, but the bulkhead was wiped out and the boat was doomed. We lasted several minutes before I got the spinning death screen. Naturally,
Tang and
Tullibee came to mind.
