Default Not a little cheat ?

I meet an allied submarine class S running surfaced and I hunt she full speed by storm condition.
What surprise when I watch her deck gun fired against me !!!

How it is possible ?
If our U-boot can't use the deck gun by storm why a class S can she does ???

the chubby insecure little S-Class saw the presence of your mighty U-boat and their commander said "Ok boys, i know its a storm out... but man the deck gun anyway! its our only hope against such a lethal killing machine like the U-boat!"

so they did.

its a game limitation, if by chance you placed a limitation on the S-class that it couldnt use its guns in a storm... well... that would mean ALL the other ships in SH3 would not be able to man their guns in a storm too.

the S-class is treated like any other surface ship.... im pretty sure they will even ping you and make dry depth charge runs against you as well if you submerge while they are shooting at you.

You do enjoy an advantage, she can't dive... (I don't think they are even armed with Torpedos, not much a submarine then...) So let her use the deck gun.

It's good to know.
I fired one T2 but missing 'cause zig-zag...

And, because I'm trying my first DiD career, no risk and go dept.

Next time maybe.
