Attacks at night
 
The attacks of the U-Boots at night were made on the surface or submerged? What method was followed by the kaleuns? I usually make a surface attack, even against convoys, but I dont know if it is the right procedure.

It is, until the Allies get radar. :up:

Guten Tag, Maverick30,

Here's something you might find useful (a lot of us have it, either this or the actual book):

It may surprise you how close you can get to a convoy on a dark night -- but don't stick around for the fireworks!

Mach's gut!

If you use SH3Gen you should be informed about much stuff, including improved allied technology and you can then adapt your own tactics as SH3Gen (=BDU in this case ;)) will suggest you.

Though I've made a few succesful night surface attacks, I prefer to do them submerged. Let the poor sheep come to me. Less risk, results are just as good.
