Both: reguardless of the particular sim, the tactic remains the same: Get close or within the convoy (Kretschmer surfaced; Chicken me submerged) and wreak havoc at 1 eel per vessel. One reason for getting inside the convoy lanes is to use the formation itself as a cover against pesky, frantic escorts while escaping to reload;...just be carefull not to be collided with by a target vessel. Be certain you have sufficient battery and compressed air for the attack before commencing the attack. Be alert after coming back to periscope depth or the surface to use the deck-gun on cripples or stragglers, that some vessels, incl. escorts, may have collided and are now easy pickings. Also: use the observation scope for a pre-surface visual sweep of all potential hazards as it affords a wider view than the attack scope at night.

Good hunting
