I noticed a huge circle icon on map representing convoy, I wonder why or what it means? Even most convoy reports showing square icon. I have attacked two convoy after they showed up as circle on world map, I noticed they were huge and alot of whale factory, tankers, large merchants, etc. I learned the best method to attack that kind of convoy using G7a going set at slow or medium speed for further range at night time until new electric torpedoe type comes out that should go twice further than G7e.
I noticed one IXB was around 10,000m away from me joining the attack, but too bad it didn't submerge, it got shelled at. I think that IXB was firing deck gun at convoy and its escorts, that IXB got finished pretty quick. I wish it could have submerged and fired torpedoes so that would make it easier for me move in while escorts move away being busy dealing with that or other Uboats. It would be a good decoy.
