I generally stay close to periscope depth because sonar conditions are terrible there when there are waves. Or, at least that is my theory...

I really think that there is something to be said for playing it safe and still completing your goals and sinking ships. I always think about it this way: What confuses and scares the enemy more? Knowing that when they are attacked, it will come a seen and confirmed enemy or, knowing when they are attacked, they will be the last to know it?

I selected "go deep," as that is my SOP. But weather permitting I try to stick around at PD and go for some more tonnage.

[edit] especially in a type II as I need the
enemies D/C's as I dont have enough
torpedos without cheating on the reloads.
That's some bold tactics you're using :up:

I've been rammed too many times and by that lost the situational awareness so I'll just be a sheep and dive lol

it requires a bit of luck and a lot of deceptive maneuvering
in anycase..........

I tend to have the enemy approaching me from the bow
when Im in reverse as my sudden speed and change
of angle is too agile under that circumstance.

or at least most times they get there share of me I suppose.

Depends..
 
I tend to run silent run deep when being hunted. However when I cant shake them off and its me or them then I go on the offensive and blow them out of the water!

Convoys, Warship encounters, sneak in sneak out if I can. :yep: I try to keep things as real as possible.
