For Silent Hunter 4--Wolves of the Pacific, this is a constant bearing technique for firing from in front of the target at a 45º angle to the target track. Developed with Nisgeis on Subsim.com in October 2008.
This is typical of my techniques in using simple rules of thumb, quickly executed as much as 30 minutes ahead of shooting. Range cancels out of the equation, resulting in much better accuracy. As a bonus, it includes a tutorial on using an in-game vector analysis using only map tools in the game to quickly set up a constant bearing attack from any angle, not just 45º.
Our techniques use no fancy math, no difficult stuff to impress others. We produce a boom for the beginner, who is just learning to play the game and getting frustrated with how difficult it is. It just doesn't have to be that difficult!
