Three approaches against a convoy during same night. All thwarted by escorts before making to reasonable (3000m) firing distance from the convoy.

Installed War Ace Campaign 4.1 on a fresh install of SH3 and after 45 minutes of troubleshooting because of the loading screens and main menu not showing up I now managed to leave the submarine pen in Kiel only to encounter some unspecified but well-reproducible CTD shortly after turning NE on the Kieler Förde. Every time I try this again...

Well, at least you had some ships in your sight... :/
I just found a C2 Cargo, single ship, no escorts whatsoever. First thought: easy prey, take him.
Calculated an interception course, got my boat aligned at periscope depth, stopped and waited. He took his time, but since patience usually pays off... Then, while I was taking some last measurements to cross-check with my earlier calculations and refine my torpedo solution, the ship literally disappeared

in my periscope sight as if it had suddenly been sucked by an invisible fog cloud. So much for the easy prey...
