I agree hospital ships would likely not be in a convoy. But, there are many things that are not quite right about this game and I feel it makes for better play to add a few.
I was attacking a convoy last night mid 1942. I could get close enough to launch into it but knew a transport was there and did not risk it. By having just a few possible, it changes your shoot at anything attitude and I like that.
I had taken out 3 escorts 2 with hom fish and had a bow and stern homy ready for the next one. I fired, he didn’t go down???? I turned and fired the stern, no hit????
I crash dived and got to0 far away to retake the convoy. Then I got “torpedo impact”, enemy unit destroyed. I was mortified. But, it was small cargo, my only merchant in the convoy (the other hom boy hit a big cargo, damaged.) That adds something extra, IMO.
As far as my additional escorts 3 and 4 rated; I was sunk on my first 1942 patrol, gun fire, DCs and rammed by a merchant, sunk on my third patrol by DCing and sunk on my first patrol by Catalinas 100 miles west of Brest. Sunk 3 times in 5 patrols. I think I have finally got it hard enough, LOL
As far as worst atrocities, I assume you mean nautical. The 10.5 million (4.5 Million Jews and 6 million gentiles) killed in the camps might be the worst!!!
