As soon as i launched the torpedoes i dived to 160 m and made sure i was under the convoy.The DD never found me, i waited a couple of hours and then shadowed the convoy to get the which wasn't sunk yet and was struggling a few km behind the convoy.
I decided to get it with the deck gun since i had only aft torpedoes and didn't want to waste them on it.I was spotted and chased by the DD but before i managed to get away i got a message from the crew that was finally sank.
Great thrill with more than 15k tonnage...  |
I think this is the best possible answer to your question.Now you know why bother attacking convoys.

ps: the sunk ships were grey instead of red...that means they were sunk by weather?I guess i get the renown since they are in my captains log.

You will get the renown.IIRC they were grey because the exact position of sinking is not known.
