Just came across two large Irish Tankers somewhere in the North Atlantic, the date is Oct 5 1940 and I was wondering whether or not to attack? I understand that Northern Ireland is on the Allied side but will attacking these ships count as an attack on neutral shipping?

Thanks

If you use GWX you have a flag manual in your periscope view. There you can look up all the nations and when/if they are in war with you.

If they are flying the Irish Tricolour then they are neutrals and should be left alone.

There's a whole can of worms waiting to be opened...

Irish ships will be flying the tricolour and are neutral.
Northern Irish ships will be flying the Union Jack.
