too many too remember, wait until you run into a large TF, but one fav I remember in Formosa, one large convoy with 20 plus ships was coming from the north, while another just as large coming from the south, I attacked as the passed each other in 200 ft of water. I really didn't have to aim to hit anything as I used long rang settings and timed the attack shooting from the flank of one, shooting all 10 torps. Those that missed ran into the other convoy and got hits. The return attack on me was about 12 Type AB escorts that drop about 24 charges per run... I survived after sinking about 20 ships after one more end around, but barely made it back to base with 90% damage
