Trouble starting in 1939

[papa_smurf]

Started a new career in 1939 as it would be a lot easier sinking tonnage than say 1942. Problem is that on mny first career most of the lone ships I've come up have been neutral:damn: Talk about unfair - 3 large cargo and 1 modern tanker, thats at least 20,000+ and I cant sink em!
(To those who will porbably say - Sink em!, Im following the rules of neutrality. Call it boring but I find it makes the satisfaction of a enemy kill more satisfying)

Guten Tag, papa smurf,

If the fishing's no good in the grid BdU gave you, head for Scotland. No target shortage there! :up:

Yep, that is the exact problems the uboat skippers faced. Imagine trying to identify friend from foe, at night, in the fog. :lol:

Plus the Rules of Engagment were fairly convoluted about who could and couldn't be targeted, and the manner in which they needed to be engaged.
