Sometimes I think the escort are too good! The fog in the game is awesome. I had a liberty ship come out of the fog. I was a 90 degree shot and I let her have it. I was cool watching it materialize out of the fog like that. I was getting closing submerged using the hydrophones. I surfaced as I had know she was close. Sure enough, out of the mist about 600m away from me. Probably the coolest hunt I have had.

Scorts seems to have x-ray eyes or jedi knights in the bridge.After a first attack in the fog, every time that i run in the surface appears a destroyer, and it was in 1941.

Radar? Check the AI crew skill levels. If they are ELITE in 41 they will find you in the fog.

Learn to shot Torps with the sonar. You will miss a lot but it is better than nothing. Bad weather is a great cover to hide your noise from the escorts. I still use Auto TDC but in real bad weather with a visiablity of only 200 meters, you will need to do shoot and pray shots using the sonor.
