Default Beware MTBs

got jumped by a group of motor torpedo boats, just for grins i wanted to see how that would go so i didnt crash dive.

one closed to within about 800 meters and fired a salvo of two torpedoes at me

realizing these werent just for show such as in SH3... hard to starboard, increase to flank. too little too late.

took a hit far astern and damaged almost everything aft of the galley, evacuated everything aft of the galley. sank to the sea floor about 100 meters. pumped all the water out forward of the galley.

i spent about an hour in real life just trying to get holes plugged while resting on the sea floor one compartment at a time. but without access to the stern where the ventilator was, eventually everyone ran out of air and suffocated one at a time.

what a helpless feeling.

so yeah, MTBs will rush in at high speed and fire torpedoes at you in this one.

eventually, i believe AI u-boats will fire torpedoes too, havnt seen that happen yet
