Shattering your HE shells doesn’t reduce your chance to start fires at all. The shells may do zero damage when shattered, but you can still set fires and knock out enemy modules. It’s kind of surprising, but even if you miss and the shell hits the water nearby, you can still take out things like the enemy’s engine or rudder!

I totally didn’t expect that! I once used carrier bombs, and hit near the target—suddenly, their engine was down. Didn’t think that would happen!
