I understand what you are all saying but having looked at the crew ratings in TMO I noticed they are all rated as 3. I would expect, at least in the early war, for there to be some less able crews around.
I think everyone has their own idea of realism so when I have time I'll change some of them in the early war to a lower level and a bit more random to try and simulate the learning curve the escorts would have gone through.
On the plus side after tracking a Troop convoy on radar for 4 hrs (real time) I fired 6 torps (just to make sure) at a 18k liner doing 18 knts and 2600 range with a slight spread and hit with all 6, so a least I'm shooting straight! This was with 93% realism.
