If a TF runs right over me, I will attack, usually, but not without a big sense of dread. Still, nice to sink a BB.
Tactics that seem to work for me:
1) Attack only at night, or in sloppy, overcast weather.
2) Don't be greedy. Pick one target & be glad for the chance.
3) Use TIIs if you have them.
4) Take your first good shot; don't worry about "best". If that means using magnetics from 5000 out, then do it. Waiting for the 2000 meter 90AOB impact shot may well be the last wait of your career.
5) Don't fire a salvo. Take the 20-30 seconds extra it takes to make four measured, well-aimed shots (this doesn't apply if you are doing manual targeting).
6) For god's sake, don't wait around for the fireworks. Fire and dive.
7) Can your VIIB go to 240m? Now is a good time to find out.
