Is TM compatible with low-realism gaming style?

Agreed. Install a mod to tone down the nuclear depth charges as well. If he decides to play on zero realism or lower realism settings, you may wish to alter the gameplay settings file so that one of the options you do have turned on is worth more realism as this will prevent an issue where you end up with a ton of crew who are ready for promotion but you haven't been awarded enough promotions for all of them. Hope he enjoys it.

On a related note, the game is hardly a shooter, even at zero realism. Your torpedoes can still dud if you get a bad angle on the target and I can assure you, the depth charges and aircraft bombs are just as deadly. I'm growing weary of this stigma that seems to exist that everyone who doesn't play hard core, balls to the walls realism is a total sissy. We all play the game the way we want, as long as we have fun...right?
