Question...

I have been playing the single mission during which you try to sink a battle ship that is part of a group of battle ships facing down an american carrier group. forget the name of the mission but here goes...

I have played this mission many many times today (at least a dozen attemtps) and never once have i managed to sink the yamato... or any of the smaller battle ships for that matter.

a majority of my encounters have focused on trying to sink the smaller battleships... many of these ships continued sailing and fighting on without any sign of worry even after taking as many as 7 direct torpedo hits spread evenly from bow to stern... literally seven gaping holes in the hull spread from the bow to the stern! and nothing, they hardly slow down even.

in the most extreme encounter yet i fired every single torpedo on board the sub at the yamato. eventually her engines did quit and she listed... ever so slightly to starboard.

eventually the battle ended, and i sat there, at periscope depth in disbelief for 4 days in the game and the old yamato did not sink... but instead she just sat there.

in real life do you think that any of these battleships could survive 7 to 20+ direct torpedo impacts and survive the encounter? all the while taking fire from destroyers, light cruisers and being bombed by airplanes?

or should i find a mod that increases the strength of the torpedos?

im currently running the following mods

JP ship dimension fix 1.0
ParaB's fewer radio contacts mod
Silent Service 1.2 graphics mod
trigger maru 1.6
trigger maru gfx pak 2 1
smaller sea plants mod
