DB's: + Don't have to deal with bulge (Which most BB's have in considerable amounts) + Don't need high ability to drop their warload and come home. + Easier to Bomb with. - They have very poor sight range. - Take up more aircraft space. - More vulnerable to AA and Fighters.
TB's: + When bulge is out of the picture,they do more damage than DB's. + Can scout much better than DB's. + Can evade AA and Fighters easier (Though,they're still not invincible to them) + If you're using manual TB (Which you should be doing) you can force enemy BB's to turn into your BB's since they'll keep trying to dodge your TB's - Almost every BB uses a significant amount of bulge,it can be EXTREMELY frustrating to have 9 Torps do 9 Damage (I cannot emphasise enough the EXTREMELY) - TB's need plenty of Vets/Experts/Boosts/Good Base and high lvl while you're at it if they're not to get INSTANTLY VAPORIZED by AAW (I Also cannot emphasise enough the INSTANTLY VAPORIZED. - It's significantly harder to do successful attacks with TB's,since they enemy knows their power,therefore they keep on DODGING,making it harder to do a good run (DODGING cannot be emphasised enough also) (Torps do most damage in the center of the ship,and less at the front and rear,this applies to DB's too however)
Regardless of how frustrating TB's can be,i still vote for them.
In the end however,TB or DB,it comes down to being effective with what you got.
And BTW,i haz KM TB's,hell i sold my KM DB's so i could afford to buy them! I'll admit there are times i wished i had DB over TB,but they're not entirely useless.....
