I´ve read every single post in this thread (very usefull for a completely clueless noob) and still no answer, so the question must be abysmally stupid .

The fact is that I´m spending 3 to 4 torpedoes to sink a single merchant (impacts, not counting misses and duds). What I´m doing wrong? Is the angle/point of impact? I have to sit around untill the thing goes down? Other? Please, any help would be most welcomed. It´ll take me well into the Korean War to sink 100k tons...

Additionally, any tips on how to manouvre when close to a target, let´s say, in the middle of a convoy during the night, Kretschmer style?

Thx again.
