Also note that the magnetic influence fuses are... uh... well broken. As in they dont work. Technically they do work but you can turn them on you can flip the switch all you want it does nothing but go 'click'.
I've just sunka subchaser. Ok, perhaps I cheated by setting the depth to 0, but it worked very, very well as you can see. The stern was blown off and the back of the bridge is almost gone as well.
Why would that be 'cheating' your a savvy skipper, youve heard the "rumors" about the questionable torpedo performance.

I say Good Job !
I guess it's a bit of cheating because I sunk the subchaser in'44, the torpedos are very reliable these days.
But I had luck, the subchaser and the destroyer (which I sunk as well) were cruising a long as if there was no war going on. Now they know better.
