       kamikaze-style torping

       You torp from 3 km range and most times die during that.
       Best is to do it close to rocks. For example your captain radio
       skill or other spotting shows that the enemy primitive ship is
       near a rock, you swim to there and torp it in close range.

       There is even such premium DD Paolo that has crawling smoke and
       a high speed but bad concealment, that Dd is the best to do such
       kamikaze torping.
       But other more versatile Dds do that technique as well.
       Let's say you are in a loosing 2 vs 3 situation at the end of
       the battle, then the only way to turn it to 2vs2 and hopefullly
       win is to knock out one primitive ship with such kamikaze
       torping. Also if the enemy has hydro you surely miss all long
       range torps, so the kamikaze way would be your only chance then
       to turn the batle to victory.
       It requires not to be afraid of, no illusional safe play, it is
       an agressive rational method.
       Most times you jsut try to use rocks for that, soemtimes you set
       smoke as an artificial rock, sometimes you can just in open
       waters swim straight towards the enemy.
       The idea is clear, your goal is to knock out 1 ship and
       hopefully survive.
       Any torpedo boat, for exampel a cruiser, can try to do the same
       of course.

       Also note from the above example screenshots/replay, that the
       enemy 2/3 red caps are totally irrelevant, no matter if enemies
       got those 2 caps or not.
       Comprehend that in most battles caps are irrelevant.
       Such Kami techique may also save your star at the end in 1 vs 3
       MM, just dont be afraid and go make +100k dmg with the method to
       save the star.

       You can try to both suprise torp at close range plus then ram.
       The best for that is a T10 premium Sherman DD because its
       topping angles look almost towards 1 o'clock. But also a weak
       torp DD like Halland could try it, I think it is difficult for
       Holland because turning radius is difficult. For Sherman there
       are only 2 torps as I remember so ramming makes the result
       little bit bigger.
