Convoy
 

Can someone please point me to a good reference for attacking convoys? It's November 1940, I am attacking convoys and all of a sudden I have 4 destroyers banging away at me with really good accuracy.

I sat quietly to the side and waited for the convoy to glide by in the dark. I unloaded all 4 torpedoes on the tanker...clunk clunk clunk...boom not enough damage. Destroyers kill me every time

I try to hit at least 1 merchant so it goes dead in the water.
Then I hide under it. The DD's won't get too close or drop
DCs very near the merchant. Then just wait it out till they
leave and then sink the merchant.....

Coming from behind....
 

I found a thread in the forums that suggest coming in from behind. That gives you a much smaller target to hit...isn't it easier to hit from the side? I never seem to get hits directly head on or from direct behind.
