Manual targeting isn't *THAT* bad.
Perhaps it isn't everyone's cup of tea. Certainly, when I first started playing SHIII, I wasn't ready for it, not by a long shot.
Something happened along the way, though. First, it was just figuring out how to intercept a contact. That *HAS* to be done manually.
Then I started looking into the various 'wheels' that people had used. I even made one someone had produced for SHI use. Then I made a couple of slide rules (both circular and linear) and bought, and learned how to use them. I made a SACF/ISWAS, and finally Hitman's awesome Kriegsmarine wheel.
It's pretty easy once you've practiced it enough. Again, it's not for everyone, but it can be reduced to a set procedure that allows you to just follow the steps.
Once you've done that long enough, you can often 'guess' AOB and speed close enough to hit the majority of the time within 500 - 1000 meters.
It's a perishable skill, though. I haven't played for months, and am just starting up again, and getting my tail whooped in GWX 1.02 (6 shots for only 2 hits, one sunk).
