Disabled Convoy Ships
Does anyone know the practice observed by real life convoys regarding disabled ships? Was it normal to just abandon them and press on, or was there a more compassionate protocol used? Transfer of passengers and/or cargo etc...?
The reason I ask, is that I've just disabled the two lead C2s in a large convoy and other than the usual frantic course changes, the rest of the group did nothing... not even the escorts. I was low on torpedoes so I just hung back and let the convoy slip away. As soon as possible, I surfaced and finished them off with the deck gun.
