I've done surface attacks with Deck Gun under 400m to save shells ( crew doesn't miss a big target from that distance)

If the merchant has guns then glue to one of its sides (10/20m from it)... suficient away from their deckguns (so that the guns angle can't fire at your sub's tower).

Or go "kamikase" running straight to him with your crew aiming 1st the merchant's deck guns.

- In good conditions if you are surfaced they would detect your sub under 8/5km if you are firing your DG
- If you are submerged at periscope and flank they will dectect you under 2km
- If you are submerged at persicope and slow they often don't detect you, unless you pass infront of the ship.
