I just downloaded it. In the readme it talks about neutrals carrying contraband, not having flags, etc., and that "It is up to you as a commander to use your discretion when making attacks".

Now, I'm a newbie skipper, so my discretion isn't worth much. It says ships around British ports are more likely to be enemy. Does that mean I can sink a neutral sailing to/from a Brit port and not take a renown hit? Can someone give me an idea what to look for when deciding who to sink in this mod?

Also, I DLd the two skin packs. I presume I apply the US+UK skin folder that's closest to the date I'm at, but what about neutrals? There's only one neutral folder and it's just dated 1940. Does that mean I should wait till January of '40 (I'm at the end of September '39 atm) to apply it, then leave it for the rest of the war?
