- torpedo <victim-ship> <submarine>
- Launch a torpedo against a ship from a submarine. Maximum range is less
- than 2 sectors. Each torpedo costs 3 shells from the submarine. The
- chances of the torpedo hitting drop greatly as the distance increases.
- To prevent submarines from being too powerful, a penalty is imposed for
- using the torpedo command - the sub's mobility drops to 0, and by a
- further 10 for each torpedo fired. If the target is a submarine, it may
- fire back, and any other subs owned by the same country in range will
- also launch torpedos. If the target is a surface ship, destroyers in
- your sector may drop depth charges on you.
