Yes, I noticed I could attack on surface and from aside, that's how I did it in my second and third run.
But I'm still wandering how to work out the convoys heading when my WO is only able to report the closest ship which is likely the front escort? I'm using the OLC gold mod, so no contacts on the map when zoomed in (and only a general mark of the convoy when zoomed out)?
Privateer and Jimbuna are in a naughty mood. Replace the 'a' with an 'e''. Though that newspaper thing may have been a real thing. I never heard of it, but I'm not from the states.

Back to convoy business

I noticed the slower torpedo speed setting (about 30kts of the type 1 torpedo, the type 2 can't go any faster) helps prevent those bows from overlapping eachother when you are supposed to fire. It also depends if the nearer target is rather long. Anyway, it's tricky keeping those silhouettes apart in the middle of the night. Good work!
