Always fire a salvo.

mic1184 · 09-14-07, 06:17 AM

always a salvo with a small angle -> hit nearly everytime with all fired torpedoes

Since the number of Torp. is rather limited,
you have to treate them as Gold, having a
torp. can as well be the diference betwin
surviving or not a situation, so since I think
and plan carefully n attack to any ship in a
convoy I have allways a chance of making my first
strick as destructive and powerfull as possible,
so firing torp by torp to various ships with
the diference of minutes I can this way hit
more ships in the first strick and then hide
for later to finish the job I have started!

The salvo its usefull however if you strick
a capital ship !:hmm:

but that is very rare to encounter!

I agree. Torpedos is too valuable. If I could sink a ship using the flakgun I would.

I fire one torpedo at a time. I hit biggest targets first and watch them lag behind the convoi then finished them off!

If I have extra I repeat it again.

Salvo on large warships. Otherwise I like to pick my point of impact.

TarJak · 09-14-07, 07:53 AM

I use the 10 second rule and fire individually.

Same here

I only fire a salvo when a large vessel needs a crack on the jaw and when an escort is sniffing around. That way I can escape safe in the knowledge that she is sunk.

Most of the time however this is not needed and so I rarely use torpedoes in salvo prefering to look at the results of one torpedo hit before launching another.

With only six torpedoes on board our type II each one is valuable. So far I have not had a situation where I have needed to use the ten second rule. :hmm:

Single torp for me...they are too precious.

An I usually sink a ship with one torp.

Adriatico · 09-14-07, 04:57 PM

Single...one by one.

coronas · 09-15-07, 09:42 AM

Depend on situation, target, distance, .....Usually single, for very big ships, salvo

Pants · 09-15-07, 10:11 AM

Like most here, it depends on the situation really

View Poll Results: When firing multiple torpedos at a single ship...
I always fire a Salvo.	18	13.24%
I never fire a Salvo; I prefer to launch each torpedo individually.	50	36.76%
