Convoy battles can work quite well in the current version of the game. Way back during the Alpha we played some simulated Convoy (with langleys serving as merchant vessels) battles in the training room. It was a lot of fun and both sides where able to score victories. Tuccy was also part of those experiments, so the Devs certainly know about the posdibilities of convoy battles.

Well there where also several other instances where DD' scored torpedo hits on BB or against fleets with BB's in it. - during the sinking of Glorious on of the Twins took a torpedo hit from the two destroyer that where screening Glorious. - Glowworm was able to ramm rhe CA Hipper - A british Dd flotilla sank a japanese CA in the straith of mallacca in 1945 - Scharnhost was torpedoed during Northcape (albeith she had already taken some serious pounding from BB and cruiser guns) - At Samar a flotilla of us DD's and DE's (together with asisting airplanes from the escort carriers) turned back a whole japanese Fleet which included the migthy Yamato. While no BB was hit, several Cruisers got badly mauled or sunk by them. And this list was just from the top of my head. There are for sure more instances where DD's pulled their weight against bigger warships.

you can replace the hydroacustic search consumable for the AA Defensive Fire consumable in the harbour in the same place where you can switch between the credit and the gold consumables
