Well, they do always eventually come back to the convoy. I wait for them to kick out, attack, retreat to reload, go back to the convoy and again wait for them to kick out, repeat above.
I've started shooting four torpedoes per ship just to keep it from always being a turkey shoot with large tonnages per patrol, plus a lot of skippers did that a lot of the time anyway, for other reasons.
