Is there such a thing as too much information?

Hey guys. I'm new to this forum, but not necessarily the game. I've been playing Silent Hunter 4 for awhile, but I still have lots of trouble with certain aspects of the game, mainly the ones involving heavy mathemactics....so basically 90% of the game eludes me.

Because of this; and I'm ashamed to admit it, I do not use manual targeting for the TDC.

I have come to terms with it. I just pretend someone else on my crew is much more competent with it than I am. (Imagine a Captain who couldn't aim? It's disgusting huh?)

But there is something I do need to learn, critically...that is, how to plot intercept courses. Now, I know there are hundreds of topics on this, and I've visited thread after thread in looking for this, but There is Actually TOO Much To Dig Through To Find What I Need. Now, I'm not complaining, it's great knowing that this place boasts such a wealth of knowledge on techniques that are, sadly, become extinct rapidly.

So, I guess my question is this: Where can I find an intercept course plotting tutorial, without having to dig through 800+ pages?

Thanks in advance guys!
