Hi guys,
I recently play SH4 and in need for advices about conducting a war patrol. Simple as I thought war patrol is when you bring your boat to a certain area and searching for ships there but still how does one do when making contact?
Will I just move along to that bearing or set up a good ambush? Because I try to follow the contact but it just like chasing the ships and make no point of a good plan. I know about the maneuvering tactic and how to set up a good firing position but there is something still trouble me during patrol. And may I ask, usually for you old skippers,how long do you stay on a patrol?
Thank you guys and please forgive me if these questions are ignorance.

Cheers,
