Personally - depending on time available - I would try for the slam dunk - both BB's and the carrier. Really depends on conditions - but you got into GREAT position - try for a magnetic shot (or 2) into the engine rooms on the targets - flood the engines and they are dead in the water. Then hide underneath them and reload.... but be warned - they can repair - or sink! If they sink - you better be moving QUICK!

Its possible to get parallel to target tracks and, trusting gyro angles will work - shoot your entire loaded compliment fast. In a type IX, let the first target just pass you - fire your 2 aft torps at a hard angle into him - shortest runs are the best, then launch your 2 forward tubes at the 3rd ship in line - they have the longest run time - so shoot them before the 2 that go to the last target - which should be around 1500m or so away if you can get there. Doing so should insure at least partial flooding on each target - slowing them down enough for you to reload and deliver the coup de grace.

But then again - It easy to criteque when I wasnt the one lucky enough to be seeing this thru my scope!!!
Either way - well done and good future hunting!
