Sub Exploit...Why Do You Look Shocked?

[Kast 96]

So, apparently submarines are considered "ships" as far as cannon targeting is concerned, and they will trigger NPC-manned cannons set to attack "ships" even when the sub is underwater and invulnerable to cannon fire. The other day, we watched as an enemy sub triggered our defensive towers to fire, draining over 2,000 cannonballs. Once the cannons were out of ammo, the enemies sailed their ships into our harbor. I just don't know what to say at this point.

Actually the cannon have chance to hit the sub if you are not careful , and the sub don't last long .

True, but that was before 'ships' was added as a target type (in order to prevent players and tames from doing the same thing).

So, just to add to the list of new and exciting things you can do with a submarine... Earlier today, one company sailed a sub into another company's harbor (both will remain nameless to protect the innocent), and parked below the row of ships of the harbor owner... as their tower cannons shot their own ships to hell. Good times.
