Acquiring torpedo firing data
Hello fellow kaleuns!
I'm a new kaleun , and i'm trying to do the things right from start. I use TWOS with 100% realism. However i have difficulties when i'm trying to engage and acquire firing data, specially on fast moving ships. I would like to know the methods of the more experienced tonnage kings, and not only how you acquire data (RAOFB, plot, etc) , but also how close you approach before firing (day and night), if it is possible a night surface attack, and any other advice that you deem appropriate. Thank you in advance. |

Thank you for the warm welcome.
Can you share with me what methods you personally use to find AOB, speed and range of your targets? |

I always use my own judgement and reckoning. To begin with it was quite annoying how often I missed, even at short distances but practice eventually improves your aim.

Alternatively you can just screw it like me and fire at point blank range (400m or so)
I always hit with this method - only downsight is that you must always attack at night unless u have map contact update on - that way you can see the enemy LOS :p Have like a few millions tons of shipping sunk so far lol. But its also because the game just keeps spawning more new ships without regards to historical numbers and production :P Using OHII as well. |
