Oh wasnt sure on your first post makes sense.We have totally different strategies though I never bother with the escorts I just stalk past em and kill the big fish.Honestly I usually dont have much trouble with escorts in TMO (not to say that they are easy to evade) I guess I just slink in and slink out. I dont go as deep either I go to about 200 stay there if they start pining I go deeper if needed.Also I am a "live to fight another day" type so I slink in go for one or two ships and as soon as I fire all my fish I begin my slink away that I am already escaping by the time the shots hit.If I miss/want to kill more I just come back and make a big 20-30 mile half circle and do it again.

I must be pretty good because for me roughly 1 in every 5 attacks the escorts will be completely in the dark as to my location sometimes even searching on the other side of the convoy
from my location I prefer night attacks.Another useful thing I like to do a quick dive each morning to find out the depth of the thermal layer("passing thermal layer sir") in the area of ocean I am in useful info.

not to go too off topic though.
