Title: 5" Guns damage
Post by: bugsplat on May 25, 2009, 04:31:03 PM: A cv's 5' gun can do damage to other ships in fleet. You can take the radar out on destroyers. It is not an emergency it's FYI.

I don't get it.

Yes, you can do damage to ships with a 5" gun. If you mean, damage to other ships in the fleet? No.

Ever spawn a PT and launch torpedoes at the fleet? Pretty explosions and nothing else.

It's only graphical, not actual damage. (Although I haven't tried yet.)

IE. You can't sink your own destroyer.

Buddy I do feel your pain, for me I was at 15k ina Pony, same result. But the same holds true when there was an nme cv off our coast and I was 1 shot killed while taking off. The SB gunner reporting hitting the nme cv at 12 miles out, go figure. It seems a little unreal and is very frustrating.

If you're getting hit by puffy from a CV 12 miles out while taking off then someone is shooting at you.

Auto-Puffy quits shooting if you are below 3k feet.
