On my last patrol in my Type IIA I came across a merchant on route to my patrol grid and i lined up a shot and put an eel into her middle. Lights were off so i took it as an enemy merchant...big mistake...it was a german merchant. Rule #1 ALWAYS identify the ship first. :nope:
After sinking 2 large cargo ships in a convoy on the same patrol i got back to base to find i've been deducted -800 renown. I now stand at -540 renown. Time to retire the captain maybe? :damn:

I wouldn't worry. The Kreigsmarine No. 7 Sausage Supply Depot needs a commandant.
Get some warm clothes ready.
I have a feeling you're going to be sent East :DL

I remember a situation when I cleanly shot a large tanker SE of Portugal's coast in late 1940 just to find out that she wore an US-Banner. I VERY quickly left the place and achieved to be outta sight before she sank.
pheeew, that was close! :haha:

:DL Looks like Hermann Göring or Stalingrad can wait for now, the "guy's in trench coats" transfered me to 7th Flotilla. Didn't really have a choice. :woot:
After last patrol I'm down to -154 so i'm working it off lol. :yeah:

In real life u-boats sank several friendly cargo ships. Usually it was the fault of the cargo captain. The had a habit of running outside their assigned areas, and disguising their ships to look like Allied merchants.
I changed my renown settings so I get 0 for sinking neutrals and -1 for sinking friendlies, rather than -1 and -10.
That said, I'm always very careful about my spotting. I already waste enough torpedoes just from missing so much.

Do you really think either one of us could be that lucky? If one of my eels hit your boat, you'd be dead and I'd be...well, they'd shoot me, so I'd be dead too.:dead:
