When firing with the deck gun 105 or 88, i always try to shoot at the waterline. Instead of the ship itself (tower, bridge)
And just let it sink after a while.

Bigger holes and damage for 105 mm deckgun.


waterline - yeah, same + aiming at engine room and spreading the under waterline hits across the length of ship to flood all compartments when shelling bigger ships.

I hardly go underwater unless I spot a ship or i am waiting for one or weather is too bad so occassionally for hydrophones. Also due to the fact it's 1941.

Im quite happy in Type 7 or 9 of any kind, I just hate the Type 7Bs Turm II, i call it the 'twat Turm' because if I have one then Im just being twat for not upgrading to a Type 7C.
I cant stand the Type II, great dive times but eveything else about it is a waste of space, fight me!
