Well, I cannot sink any ship with the deck gun! Today I tried to sink small merchant (ca 1800 BRT), so I manned the gun and I fired into it... all my ammunition! Accuracy: 90-95%. Result: target's speed decreased from 12-15 kn to 5-6 and that was all!

Two hours later (in real time  ), another patrol, another sub: we've met medium old tanker - and the same result  - some smoke, decreased speed, lost mast, but I fired out all ammo... 
Any idea?
Thx.
PS: torps are ok: they do their job.  |
Hmmm, I took out a merchant last night (war patrol, Singapore) with the deck gun. Used a few AP rounds, swithed to HE and maybe 10 more. Got it just in time, the last escort was starting to close in and I was out of torps, having used up most of them trying to kill the escorts. The sampans take about a dozen good hits. If you get close enough, aim for the waterline. I'm playing stock 1.4.
