I think you will be bored to hell doing convoy duty... specially with a wolfpack in the area...

BOOOOM merchant down. huh... what... where... a that Uboat must be around there, race to the presumed firing point of the Uboat drop a series of DC... wait. Nope nothin.. race back to convoy.. BOOM 2nd merchant other side of convoy down.

Rinse repeat, in xx mins several merchants down. no clue how many Uboats and where they are. Rescue the merchant crews in the water. and race back to the convoy. Prey the uboat lost sight of the convoy else it's gonna be a long trip to home. That was life of many DD's during the early part of war. Later in war they simply didn't see a sub at all.

Hunter killer might be more fun. But even then the HK group needed to find a sub 1st..

I think best fun to be had, as a game is pacific theatre DD's participating in large scale surface warfare.

But I rather have a good Schnellboot or MTB (torpedo) or MGB (gunboat variant) addon/game. Then you could join in an attack on german shipping in the channel... close to home
