Gotta go with steam torps, although I do like shooting it out on the surface with HE!

How about ramming ? Now THAT is for the real tough guys, any wimp can fire torpedoes or a shell, but ramming takes some guts !!!

Steam is the way to go for night and bad weather attacks, Electric for day attacks, Deck gun for knocking off damaged ships and small fry, AA for fishing boats, coastal ships and tugs.

I like to keep at least one electric in a forward tube, and in the rear tube. But the rest of my loadout is steam because I don't do much shooting in ports. Port shooters should carry nothing but electric, because you'll want maximum distance when you shoot.

Steam, for speed 40+ Kts. Most of my torps I fire on the fast setting but I like having the choice.

I cast my vote to "electric torps".
In the point of speed, they're slower than steam, but wakeless. ![]()
