To deal some damage to your enemy, you must hit him.

Your bullet may fly for even few seconds.

It is wise to shoot first from one cannon and look to see if you have aimed properly.

If yes, then you’re able to unleash the whole salvo.

Sadly, there is no universal rule for aiming at long distance.

You must simply train a lot until you’re able to instinctively approximate where you should send the bullets.

PC

Playing on St. Luis cruiser is a very good idea, it has large amount of fast reloading cannons.

It allows you to send few dozens of bullets in one minute.

There is no better shooting training than that.

PC

Once you learn how to hit enemy ship, you should focus on its specific parts.

The armor is rather thin in that spot, you should deal large damage.

A good idea in case of HE ammunition is also shooting at the cannons, quarterdecks and chimneys.

PC

Citadel is the part of the ship in which the vital rooms are located, such as machine room.

Few such shots are capable of taking down even a battleship.

Once you properly aim your cannons, it will be time to shoot.

Despite appearances, at this point you still have more than one option.

By clicking once, you will shoot from a single turret.

It’s useful when giving the first shot at enemy who is far away.

It allows you to see whether you have aimed properly and where had the bullets landed.

It allows you to adjust bullets flight in real time.

Third shooting mode is a simultaneous fire from all cannons (twice clicking the left mouse button).

It should be used only if you’re sure you have aimed correctly.

After giving the salvo you are helpless for from few to more than a dozen of seconds.

This mode should be also used against destroyers and fast cruisers.

After shooting a salvo you could suddenly change your position or swimming direction.

Torpedoes are a special weapon bang out.

They deal massive damage and can cause flooding, but it is very hard to hit target with them.

First thing you should take interest in are two shooting modes - wide and narrow.

They differ in dispersion of torpedoes in a single salvo.

When you change torpedo aiming mode, next to the rotation range a gray field will appear.

Of course, it’s a very simplified tool that only helps in aiming.

All enemy needs to do is slightly change his course for the torpedoes to miss him.
