What comes in using big type IX's against convoys, they are exiting moments but not too difficult. It's autumn 1943 (NYGM 2.3) and I have always, when possible attacked convoys with IXC and escaped without any severe damage to my boat. The real danger comes from the sky IMO.

If you cruise and wait until you spot single ships, you miss a lot of opportunities. That is not very aggressive nor impressive way to command you boat. And I think that The "Lion" would pretty quickly send you to other duties, if you pass too many convoys...
