I'll reload and see if I can do better. It will give me a chance to try shooting a spread into the pack and see what happens.

Should not attack on surface in early war s you found out lol. Invasion forces are well escorted by skilled escorts and even the transports are usually skilled. This was done to reflect the best of the best the japanese had in early phase of war before attrition evened things out.
