Okay, it's not easy and takes practice but basically say you are going on to attack a convoy with 3 escorts, one forward, one on the port side and on on starboard side, usually the flank escorts are 1500-2000 yards off the convoy..plot the convoys projected path on map and get ahead, stay about eh 2500 yards off their path, dive and go to 100 feet, silent running, 2 knots or less.Use sound to keep their bearing, come up to scope depth for a look, see what the lead escort is doing, basically in the game, esp TMO if they get within a 1000 yards or a little less and youre at scope depth, esp if seas are calm, they will hear you, the dial around your sub in the nav map extends 1000 yards, so your goal should be to keep them out of or just inside the dial. and keep a narrow profile, so say you are 2500 yards off the convoys path, moving north and convoy is moving south, make a slow turn and keep your bow pointed at the escort while trying to keep it at 1000 yards, this provides some pucker moments for sure but it happens.What will happen is evenaully as you turn, youve turned your boat into position for a good 90 degree shot and are closing distance for a close in shot, ideally in daylight with a convoy, you want to fire short distance bc with steam fish will be spotted due to the wakes, so firing from shorter distances means they have less time to react.Now, first DD is moved on, now you need to avoid the flank DD, say your are on the starboard side, notice what the starboard escort is doing.Sometimes you get lucky and they zig off to check the flank and leave that side of the convoy exposed, but if not, you may have to fire a little earlier than planned sometimes, depends if he will get to the 1000 yard safety area (the dial that surrounds your sub)where he may hear you which would make before you are ready to fire.

Now select your targets etc, double check your info in TDC, make visual checks, to make sure youre in correct position....Fire.Then it comes time for evasion, which is a whole different monster.

Now if you are playing auto target, well just point and shoot once in proper position.I play manual so the workload increases, but a lot of fun.Hope this helped.
