Whats your style

Just wondering what everyone's prefered style is. In my current set up in runnin a Vanilla SH3 ( i actually like the realism of roatting crew my self and such) all options on/max except limit external view (i actually like seeing my sub plowing thru heavy seas and it makes for some cool screen caps) and manual TDC. mid 1942 in the north atlantic just west of ireland and im have a good bit of sucess.

So im wondering when your on the hunt whats your approach?

Personally I love stealth. to me my U-boat is like a sniper of the high seas. I very rarely use my Deck gun, and given the choice prefer to avoid risking a mixup with destroyers or corvettes. 1 eel, 1 kill. I personally get a thrill carefully tracking a convy near dusk as it gets closer and closer.... carefully examining the ships in it and reviewing thier specs. I cut a victim from the herd check my calculations, check them again, and then chek them once more... FIRE... i normally start with a further one first, then a closer one.. timing 2 almost simotaneous hits... if its a well defended convoy (3 or more warships) i'll break off after 2 maybe 3 confirmed kills. running silent i wont be reloading and need to be prepared to defedn my self. get deap and get silent... then head over to my sound station and track those pesky corvettes and hope they dont get a track on me.

So what do you guys all do?

are you the type who loved the adreniline pumping thrill of a turning fight with a destroyer? do you try to hit escorts first then run down the convoy with your trusty deck gun?
