There are many things that would be nice to randomize, but this is problematic online. If each client calculates some thing, the random factor would need to be synchronized over the net.

A packet that includes the seed for randomization, thereby syncing it for all, perhaps? Or let server handle ship bomb/torpedo damage? The delay involved when hitting a ship would not too unrealistic.

Yes that was my thought as well. When the mission gets loaded, the host generates a damage modifier (lets say between 0.5 and 1.5) for each ship and sends it to the client as part of the mission. No idea if that is feasible though
