Oh. I see. I don't... Like FF at all. So. That's why I don't know who she is.
+1. If you're gonna give me a JRPG, give me something from the Dragon Quest/Dragon Warrior series.

No, but if I explain why I hate anime style animation, people are going to try and convert me and I'm going to call them bad words and get muted, so we aren't going there.

I like to think they sneak on board the ship while it's in port, then stab all the crew in their sleep, finally cornering the captain and kicking him into the boiler while yelling "THIS IS SPARTAAAAA!"

By the same token, I've had games of Axis and Allies where a transport ship more or less cleansed the Atlantic of U-boats by itself.
Of course, cargo ships did carry light cannon for most of the war, though they were rarely effective with them (generally the Navy provided excess guns and ammo, but couldn't spare troops, so the civilian sailors had to man them).
Those canons aren't particularly effective against submarines, though. Unless the submarines try to sink it with it's deck gun. Dunno how common it was in the war for subs to go with deck guns against lone transport ships, instead of using torpedoes.
It was fairly common, especially during the part of the war when the torpedoes didn't work. Besides that little issue, torpedoes were mostly used against escorted ships, warships, or convoys.

I was trying to make a joke about the number of games, not your reason for disliking them. Oops.

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

What, are ya kidding? The Brits have their own berserk buttons, and woe to those who carelessly push them.

We humans can be touchy sometimes :P

I think you are referring to that thing called, 'France'. :P And yeah, they are far from a not-warlike people. All humans are warlike, violent, and brutal. Some of them just forget these facts.
