Still think the main reason why game PH results are for the most part less satisfactory than RL results is that there is no way to make ships inboard of outlying ships at BB ROW, ships nested in groups, ships in slips, in drydock, behind torpedo defences etc impervious to torpedo attack. At PH, only 4 of the eight BBs were vulnerable to torpedoes, and only a handful of other ship types were as well. But in WITP all are vulnerable and this spreads the torp hits out excessively and leads to many damaged but few sunk by flotation damage. Majority are magazine explosion losses.
