I'm wishy-washy on it...the questions of elegance vs practicality vs tactical usefulness. The detection stuff came from reading some of Steve's thoughts in...The Ogre Book, maybe?

Could also be presented as "Shots work as normal", "Ballistic weapons take a penalty (the defense bonus for submerged Marines, etc)", and "Torpedoes / Depth Charges / Etc only".

But I'm not 100% sold on it needing to be there. It mainly just a thought for "How to make open-water combat varied enough to be interesting, without losing Ogre's elegance".
