The best thing to remember about multiple targets is that initially (before the booms start) they all share the same course. Of course, depending on their bearing, their AoBs are all different.
However, in the outer ring of the AoB dial you can directly read the target course. NOW you don't need the AoB any more. Just shoot your first target, sight on the second, get a range with the stadimeter if you're using the cursed thing, press send range/bearing, change the AoB dial to read the correct course and you're ready to go for target #2.
I share the tactics of the real boats and very seldom take shots on multiple targets on the same approach. Lotsa stuff can happen when you do that and most of them are bad. I hit, run, end around to the other side and hit again, over and over until the sun rises or there is nothing left to shoot. Once the torps are out of the tubes I'm turning tail to run.
