technique to shadow a convoy
Hey guys I wonder what your technique is for shadowing a 60K Gross Registered Tonne heavily defended convoy? And is it correct to shadow them so that when looking at the periscope at night the moonlight would be behind them and not behind me? Or is it the other way around?
Thanks in advance CS2K9 |

Classic case of stalking a convoy and winning MoH! USS Parche
otherwise known as "Ramage's rampage"

You never want to be in the "moonstreak". You want the target vessels to be in there. In other words, you always want the convoy between you and the moon. If you have the moon at your back you are "silhouetted" and this is not good. |
