I have just got a brand new quad core pc and running this for the first time. I am currently on the convoy action trainer too. When I first spot a ship approaching nearly head on at 036, (approaching destroyer) crash dive and turn on a heading of 090. Reduce to 1/3 speed and cruise until sonar has destroyer somewhere astern. Continue on current heading but slowly bring her up and have a peep for the convoy. I think you will find you and the merchants are on an excellent intercept course. There are two/three other destroyers who will take up station far what should be your stern. BUT, when first torp hits a tanker (don't bother with merchants) take it down again and turn on a parallel course with convoy, go at standard speed or less, unless your lucky enough to take out a tanker on your first strike (prob 3 torps). Try for two tanks together to "slow them down" to finish off later). Convoy should turn west, and tankers south west but I do not know if convoy prgram is standard or random.
