When you tire of the Med and it won't take long to get frustrated going after military convoys, head back to Gibraltar and work your way out and back to France.
Remember to top off your torpedo's and have those Italian girls polish them real good before saying goodbye!
My schedule usually has me in the Med about two months. That allows me to give my guys a port visit to both La Spezia and Salamis and with a full load out of torpedo's, more than enough to shoot at in between.
I hit Malta in route to Crete and depending on results wait until I'm empty and then hit one port or the other. Then, I lay near Alexandria and do it all over again. On my way out, I swing by Malta...just in case I get lucky and depending on results, one more loadout and out I go.
- Important notes!
- If you at least damage a warship and slow it down, the rest leave it behind, including the escorts, just be patient and stalk the target. I hit a carrier once and ended up stalking it all the way from west Malta to Ceuta before making a long range final hit.
- Don't try to waste your deck gun on Warships, the armor is just too thick. Tried 220 shells once to finish a Battleship dead in the water. No go!
Remember, warships do not add to your tonnage score as they are not merchants but … they do add points to your overall score and that helps getting you up higher on the Top Score List. Good Luck and learn how to use those offsets, they help on fast moving transports as well.
Enjoy!
