Aye aye Captain! Ramming speed it is! Time to find out what the dud rate of a Type VIIb is!

I couldn't afford enough Prilosec and Xanax to keep my tummy happy after going through a few patrols with duds enabled, so now if it's a good angle, it goes boom.
At the opposite end of the spectrum, I've watched a Type IV Falke acoustic run up behind a Clemson destroyer, bounce off the rudder, stop a moment and apparently clear the stars and birds from its brain, then lunge ahead again. Shortly thereafter, it bounced off a prop and I muttered an impressive string of obscenities (for a now-civilian, anyway...). THEN it seemed to find its third wind, whizzed up behind, and blew the stern off the ship.
Talk about a nail-biter! Sure wish the other torps were that smart (or that unrealistic....)
