Great post generally, but your first nugget is golden.
The classic beginner mistake is to tear around at flank speed looking for targets, then having to return to base with an empty tank and a full magazine.
In GWX, at the most fuel-efficient speed (8 knots), a VIIB has
14 weeks of fuel and 30K km range.... plenty of time and space to use 14 torpedoes effectively.
