Where am I going wrong?

The others have provided excellent advice.

When you get your problem sorted, you should investigate and upgrade to one of the supermods (GWX, NYGM) pretty quickly.

Vanilla, unfortunately, teaches you a lot of bad tactical habits: the torpedoes and deck gun shells are over-powered, the merchants are flimsier, the escorts are manned by pre-schoolers, the British have not discovered mines, etc, etc.

If you wait until you are *really* good at Vanilla, you may find yourself having to unlearn as much as you learn when you go to a supermod.

Good hunting! It's a great game.
