First thing back up your originals first and keep them safe.

Follow this path

As you can see nice selection of Notepads you want Ammunition Notepad
Don't forget to back it up

To make this easy after you made your back up copy delete the contents and just copy all this lot and paste it in, what this has done you no longer use your renown to pay and you get all the torps on Jan 1st 1943. If you want all them even sooner where you see 1943-01-01 just change it.

Not really, good old copy and paste.

[panzer 49th]

It helped me though(took me 10 min to read though:rotfl

[VonHammer]

you must be a slow reader then

[panzer 49th]

not really when the post takes up half of the entire thread it takes a while to read it sometimes thats all

Then why the hell did you feel the need to re-post it in your reply? We can all read it fine the first time!

Is not the Mk27 speed 12Kts,how do they catch anything ? We tried one once had to dive it was tracking us!!

[Hobnail]

Use of the mk27 homing mine on the USS Bergall.

The enemy ship had to be "drawn" into close proximity to the submarine in order for the 'Cutie' to acquire the target. On the Bergall this was accomplished by rising to periscope depth, raising the periscope and "wiggling" the scope around, giving the enemy a better chance of seeing the periscope head. At this point the patrol craft would begin a run on the submarine. The Bergall would then drop to about 150 feet depth and wait as the enemy before firing.

I use them most once I penetrated a convoy and when the destroyers close in thats when I use them, true to say you got to be careful of them. I go to all stop to give myself some room.

[donut]

The 'CUTIE' INFO Now has anyone seen the periscope head decoy,in game.we have seen mention of same in files,is this implemented:hmm: ? "Graphically"
Thxs.,Mr.Steed,for tactics also.

yea iv had that happen to me to. just last nite in fact. i was trying to fight off a small jap patrol consting of 2 subchasers and 2 gunboats. i got three of them, then one of my torps didnt lock on to the gunboat that was left and instead tracked to me and sent me to the bottom, i was already sufffering heavy damge from the raming.

ive been trying to find the mini tweaker so i could i edit the speed of them and make them a little faster so they can actuallly catch something thats not me! and increse the explosive punch - they only wave a payload of 95lbs of torpex.

[donut]

We filled all 10 tubes w/them,snuck into Convoy under the thermal,blew ballast to PD,& fired them all,& dove.:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: LOL!!

[Quagmire]

Wasnt the CUTIE designed as an anti-submarine homing torpedo? Since a submerged sub can only do 8 kts at best the 12 kt top speed of the CUTIE isnt a factor.

Or was the FIDO the ASW torp?

CUTIE, FIDO, those in the USN ordinace dept sure know how to come up with code names... :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
