NYGM 2.2 and stalking a convoy

[Immacolata]

Im playing in a VIIC out of Bergen, in middle of 42. I get a radio contact for a convoy and I try to intercept. The problem I have is that they spot me before I spot them. I can't even see their smoke when my sub turns red. I am at noon so my visibility is high.

How should I try and keep tabs on a convoy without being spotted? Anyone got some good advice? This is hard! :damn:


Darn. I posted in the wrong forum. Any mods around to shuffle me into the right SH3 forum?

Hey bud, you might get a lot more answers if you post this in the SHIII forums and not the off topic section.:up:

By middle 1942 escorts begin to mount radar systems... so they can't detect you before you can see them... You can't attack on surface a convoy escorted with ships with radar...

My advice is, once you have a contact, to maneuver in order to position yourself on the front of the convoy and make the final approach submerged...
