Default After this performance... maybe I need to resign my commission...

40 torpedos, 7 different attack setups, 10 reloaded tries on the same large convoy (3 columns of 8-9 ships plus another 7-10 escorts), all with 0 hits... all fore or aft, not under.

I recently switched over to manual targeting, having watched the guides and read the how-to's, all with some good attacks, but for some reason, this one is eluding me. It doesn't matter what angle I come at the convoy, I have to stay too far away from them due to the escort screen being close in, so when I fire, the ships always evade the fish. I could understand the target evading, but the merchants are all packed up in a ball, I can't believe that all of them managed to evade it every time....

Any thoughts about what I'm doing wrong? Should I be using a different attack method? Could the problem be that the weather is perfect with no waves at all in the middle of the day?

Thanks

PS: I'm running TMO 1.9 and RSRDC
