Default Improved Convoys my EYE!

Mods
Im Running NYGM Tonnage ModV.1
Sink them All V2.2
couple skin mods and atmosphere mods

Okay well i had a very sucessful attack on outbound convoy SC10.
Approached and fired all 4 torps at a C3, C2 and another C2. 2 torps hit c3, 1 hit a c2 (broke in half), and another 2 torps hit a c2. C3 fell out of formation and listed, 1 c2 sank in a matter of minutes, and the other c2 that was hit my two torps slowed a bit, and listed, but kept in formation.

DDs completely missed me and i fell back to reload and hit that c3 that fell out of formation. Well about 30/40 minutes pass from the first attack. I hit the c3 with my stern torp, and ive reloaded my 2 torps in my bow compartments. The convoy was going due North from my position, so i could catch up to it easily, but darkness was gone and dawn was upon me. The plan was to run far in front of the convoy and wait again and hopefully hit another 3 ships.. And finish off that heroic c2 that swallowed 2 torps and laughed.

Well im flying at 17 knots NOrth and find the convoy once again, report to BdU, and plan my attack. But to my dismay, the convoy is in COMPLETE disarray. Its been about 2 hours since the first attack. I noticed on my way to the convoy that a HUnt I couldnt take the waves anymore, and was sitting severly listed on her port side. So i was just sitting there watching the convoy going everywhich way, stopped, some still running, that c2 i hit was stopped but showed no signs of sinking. There was no sport in hittin a retarded convoy, especially since it was impossible in getting a good fix with all that stopping and moving.

Well what happened? The convoy had succesfully evaded 2 sinking ships, the c3 and the c2, and still went back in formation after a couple of minutes. I dunno it really takes away from experience, i just quit.. But it was definately fun hitting the convoy in the 1st attack!!
