Neutral question

Holdit · 09-06-07, 04:56 PM

May 1940, on patrol in the North Sea, shadowing a Norwegian merchantman wondering if I should sink it. On the the one hand, Norway is listed as an enemy since March (GWX), but on the other hand, it's sailing unescorted and lit up like a Christmas tree. Is it OK to attack this target?

TIA Etc

In a word NO

You sink neutrals you get penalised with negatve renown

Thats me stumped then. Well if its lit up I wouldn't attack it to be safe

If the ship is worth 200 renown for sinking it when it belongs to Britain. Then the same ship you sink belonging to Say Spain - then you'd get fined -200 for it. Generally speaking. Some are worth bigger hits.
