Thanks for the tips! They are very much appreciated!

I usually try to set up ambushes for my targets, lying in wait for them. Usually, after long periods of observation I calculate their route and speed and attempt to set my self up so I am at a 90 degree angle. Takes time but is rewarding. Did the same in GWX but since I am used to ships dropping like stones this was a bit of a shock. But now that you say they can take several hours to sink that helps, since I usually wait around 10 mins then get impatient and fire a second torp. Guess I have got to practice patience patience patience!

But I do prefere the GWX damage model actually, the stock one was a bit to easy to predict, now I never know and am pretty sure allied patrols are not far behind me! well, better get back to it.

Thanks again for all your help!

Regards,

Alex "Bilge cleaner
