One recommendation: get rid of most of the groups spawning with 3-4 unarmed merchant ships - they aren't historical, they are too easy to sink, and they inflate your tonnage score. Sometimes groups of 3-4 straggling cargo ships would band together, but by 1940-41 lots of them would be armed, and impossible to attack on the surface. By 1943 pretty much every big merchant ship from the USA or UK was armed. And it was not uncommon to have 1-2 destroyers or at least an armed trawler escorting any group of 3-4 merchants that straggled from the bigger convoys.
