Its just a matter of tactics you use against them. They are a Well designed AI and by the looks are designed to alter there tactics based on your tactics. I have in the past sunk all the destroyers. I kept my fantail pointed at them and sunk them with the gun. Keep as low of a profile as you can to make there shots that much harder. Keep at flank and alter your course as much as possable. I have made a few DD's run from me. I had one abandon the Convoy and run for Japan once. I guess I dammaged him enough that he was scared... I am very agressive in my tactics. I scared off a Subchaser lastnight by firing a salvo of torpedos at him. Of couse he caught me off guard. he was being silent as well. I went in after the convoy moved off and the DD's gave up on me. He was sitting a a few 1000 yards off the Merchant that I had caused to go dead in the water. Well I had secured from silent running and had the gramaphone playing and was making all sorts of noise. Lucky I spotted him in time and I set up an attack on him. I fired all four foward tubes at him and he was busy dodgeing Torpedos. He made a run away from me just as I was getting lined up to fire the aft at him. I guess I supprised him more then he did me.
