43 tactics

Hey guys, it's Dec 42 in my GWX campaign and i am really starting to struggle.

My favourite haunts west of brest are alive with DD's and very short of single merchants. I'm having a real hard time getting in to convoys with my IXC with most convoys packing between 4-6 DD's and they are good!. No more sitting at 20m engine stopped until the lead DD passes you, he gets me every time.

West coast of spain is full of French merchants but they are Neutral. The US coast is light on targets and my fuel range (I don't refuel) isn't great for the Caribean.

My last 4 missions have been really poor!

Anyone got any good suggestions on where to head or what to do for 43? was thinking of getting a IXD2 and working the carribean but what about a different theatre or approach?

I'm open to suggestions, different flotilla, boat, tactics?
