Question about sinking ships

related to the torpedoes... do you use critical hits for torpedoes mod?

A successful torpedo hit is not a guarantee that the ship will sink. Even Kretschmer was many times very pissed that he needed to spend several torpedoes on a single ship to make her sunk. So its normal.

To have acces to better equipement you have to earn the right and buy them with renown points. Or use Stoian's mod that will remove the cost for these upgrades.

To promote the crew, hit G and then click on their portraits. There you can manage their skill points and medals.. if any.

In my humble and very limited experience this mod is a must have, otherwise you will need 3 to 4 eels to sink a single 7k ton steamer. After you will need 2 at most. Thx to stoianm who pointed this out.

The fires are a visual indication of damage to a ship, but the fire does no damage itself.

actually I've been playing around with this and think I've found a way for the fires to cause damage over time.......

That would be welcomed.

Fire now causes damage to ships

They can sink and explode from fire!
