I recently installed RFB on my system and allowed for duds myself. And I sure am getting the feeling of annoyance that real skippers had. Last night's patrol I came across two unescorted tankers and a large freighter. Sunk one tanker and the freighter, but the other tanker took 3 duds. Set up for another run and fired 6 torpedoes, because I didn't want to do this end round again. I watched in external camera in disbelief as each and every one bounced off. Did an end around, fired 4 aft tubes which were also duds. Cursed vigoriously, did yet another end around because this tanker wasn't getting away, and with my last three fish, I fired and had 3 solid impacts.

What really annoys is that when you get back to base, there's no one there to scream at regarding faulty torpedoes. I want someone's head fired out my torpedo tube! (It would probably be more effective)
