Hi All,

I shot a spread of 3 torpedoes at a big, scary Destroy last night. In 15ft seas and the lowest possible running depth they all missed. Of course they all could have missed wide but, my last ship, a Modern Composite European Freighter, all the torps ran under the keel in 10ft seas, shallowest running depth again. Is it a waste of torpedoes to even try to shoot a shallow draft Destroyer in high seas?

Also, sometimes I get the red stopwatch hand, that, i think indicates the impact time. Sometimes I don't get it. What is that stopwatch mark Dependant of?
