I hit an inbound convoy a couiple of weeks ago near the end of a patrol. Visibility was moderate at night so I didn't want to get too close. Picked my targets. Almost got gun shy-remembered a few posts about neutrals in a convoy.
Then my agression factor said "NO, NO, NO-SHOOT THE BASTARDS!"
Any neutral sailing blacked out in a blacked out convoy heading for England is fair game, loss of renown be damned.
Sank an ore carrier and got a hit on another ship(didn't see the hit-was on my way down with a destroyer charging in on me. I managed to evade after an hour, came back up, made an end around from the other side of the convoy and sank a whale factory ship (biggest ship I've sunk so far
) and a medium tanker. Slunk away on the surface this time-the escort had no clue where I was, just a bunch of searchlights and star shells off in the distance as I made my way from the convoy with all my eels expended and home.
Even after a slight hesitation about neutrals in a convoy, none of the ships I got were neutral. Next time, I won't even pause before I shoot a ship in a convoy.
