Yeah, the gunnery is a little much on those little ASW's!

Couple that with the previously mentioned fact that they weren't ASDIC equipped (Hell, an awful lot of destroyers and corvettes weren't ASDIC equipped until mid-war for that matter).... and you have one lean, mean, unrealistic fighting machine!

Same thing with the merchant gunners for that matter.

Normally I run the deck gun myself, but I have tried letting the computer gunners run the show because I figured it would be as bang on as the other CPU gunners in the game.... unfortunately not.

My highly trained sub crew only manages 1/5 shots on target on a big freighter, and yet the merchant seaman on the freighter is the Newfoundland Davy Crockett - winging rounds into the 5 foot profile of my sub

Bah!
