Damn the Torpedoes!

I realised today that I've been using the heavy guided torpedoes listed for the Riga class frigates and Skory class destroyers, which have been decisive in a couple of scenarios, when I should actually have been using Type 53 unguided ones. The guided versions didn't come into Soviet service until 1965 at the earliest, so I've made it too far easy for the Indonesian ASW warships to hit and sink their Royal Navy targets. No wonder they have been doing so well!

    I was going to say, the Indonesians seem to be making mincemeat of the Royal Navy.

    I think a replay might be called for?

    I did wonder. Those ship-killer torpedoes were far too powerful.

    It's a learning exercise and I'm definately still on page 1!

    Ah OK- I was getting worried for the RN in your games and I had put it down to post war parsimony by the treasury....

    Cheers,

    Pete.
