I'm fed up with these #@&%& hedgehogs. Not only are they difficult to aim with, but also completely useless. I hit a type VII six times with my mortar and did nothing.
They are - in fact more effective against surface ships than subs

I got lucky with them a few times !
Oh , against surface ships ? Yes I tried that too. Using depthcharges set to zero -one , as well , at extreme close range !! LOL

I've seen low flying enemy bombers being hit by their own side's hedgehogs.
Kinda funny. I bet that never happened in real life.
But I have to agree. Hedgehogs are not easy to aim nor are they accurate. But the once in a while successful hit with them is very satisfying.

I've never seen anything THAT ridiculous...
I bet this'll be a "trick shot" in multiplayer - to get a bomber with hogs
My point about that mortar is, that if it's so difficult to hit anything with it, we should at least be able to see some results. I understand one, two, or three hits. But six? Am I hunting titanium-made Akulas here? hmmm:

[OT] I routinely use my depth charges (K-guns) to sink tankers when in a torpedo boat

[OT] I wonder why my crew isn't smart enough to automatically start shooting AAA guns at ships when the skies are clear. Perhaps they drink 2 much... buxton:

Hog damage has been upped in the patch. They are still tough to use, but the secret is the ANGLE at which you approach the enemy.

I guess I've figured out that right angle

. Now I just want my hog hits to do more than stir the water...
