Update: Torpedo Rules!
Very simple rules for using torpedos in Blazing Skies. Now your Kates, JU88's and Swordfish can "SINK THAT SHIP".
Torpedoes:
An aircraft carrying Torpedos may release them by flying straight and level for 2 turns at ALT 1 and at speed 2 or less.
If a Ship target is within 6” of a kite releasing a torpedo, it is hit by rolling a D6 equal or greater than the range.
A plus 1 is added to the roll if the ship is broadside on.
A minus1 if the ship is small or agile.
A Torpedo hit will usually sink a ship if it is a merchant or destroyer, Cruisers take 2 hits, Capital ships 4.
