sink a merchant with a single gunshot...

Hi all,
In the GWX it's possible to sink a ship with a single gunshot...
Last night i was patrolling just NE off Scapa Flow on my second cruise and i ran into a Small Merchant. i gave him a shot below the waterline in the fuel bunk. The distance was about 600 - 700 m, and angle on bow ca.75 degrees. It has split the ship in two.
Later during that patrol i did the same thing with another Small Merchant, the effect was as above.
Very funny, considering that damage model in GWX is not as "easy" as in stock version of SH3. Not that it's wrong, on contrary i quite like it. I suppose it could've been achieved in real situation.
Give it a go you might succeed as well.

Keep on fishin'.

P.s. The explosion was amazing. i'm sorry but i haven't taken any screens.

Me again.

Some of the ships have a 'magic' weak point, as you have discovered. However, I think they are pretty random so you'll be lucky to do that again.

this spot is often referred to as the "G-spot". Difficult to find, but once you get there, you will make the whole shabang tremble! Nice shot, mate!

Tell me about it. It felt like you were a kid again, running around in a candy store!
Absolutely brilliant! And twice in a row!
Playing GWX is a pure joy, it keeps you in a steel grip the whole time. You never know what's gonna happen. The uncertainty is the key to an enjoyable game i think, and this mod delivers it right on.
It would be cool to hook up for a MP game once i sort that thing with the Error.
Cheerio Mate. All the best.

Keep on fishin'.
