General procedure is to get in position ahead of them, Let the screen pass, then come to scope depth and start tearing them up right in the midst of the convoy. After exhausting my forward fish, I drop a decoy (press Y) dive deep and go silent and sneak away. All the merchants churning around me + the decoy leaves the DD's utterly confused and i find them circling the area i launched the attack from and deployed the decoy.
Oh, I'm in 1939 still, and this was a 17-ship convoy with no escorts. Unfortunately I only got the one ship. Always find those convoys when I'm almost out of torpedoes.

I did just run into one of those escorted ones, though. Seven merchants with a ring of nine destroyers around them. No idea how I'm going to get in there.

How in the world do I launch decoys with Stormy's mod installed? Pressing Y rigs for silent running.
