My screen is huge, so I have a ways to go between the list and the #s is the only reason I thought of it.
Worst case scenario: if it is a lone merchant and I'm not sure, I'll run on the surface, or maybe fire a few shots across the bow/stern with my AA/deck gun... if they point a spot light at me, then they are hostile.
But then again, I am EXTREMELY aggresive, and will often take the heavy AA and use that (with crew on the deck gun) while ordering heading/speed changes while dismantling convoys.
and before anyone says anything, yes I'm nuts. MUAHAHAHAHAHAha.......haha.....ha.
I'm done.
maybe.
