Default Convoys

Last game I did I had allkinds of convoys in the Atlantic & had done nothing to any files. Now I only have 1 or 2 if I am lucky. Doesn't 1940 have many convoys in that war. Also what is TCD?

TDC is the Torpedo Data Computer used to input target and torpedo info which combines to calculate the gyro angle of each shot. You can do this manually or have the WO do calculate it for you.

I think I'm confused. Are you really saying that you see between 2-4 convoys per one patrol?
How many do you need? Exactly how many torpedoes do you carry?

If I see one convoy during a patrol I'm happy. I wouldn't be able to attack more than two, anyway.
