Beware of Greek ships bearing deadly gifts

I'm in my April '43 patrol in Grid BE, I came across 2 separate convoys. Both had a mix of ships and few escorts. The funny thing was that all the transports(2), a couple of C3s and C2s, out of the 36 ships had deckguns. The rest none. So with that and any ship in a British convoy with merchants carring weapons, I considered all fair game, neutral or not. I did sink one neutral tho, but there was no renoun penalty for that.

When I bumped into a second neutral convoy in a later patrol, I was shot at by one of the neutrals (I think a stray 37mm round hit him, like he should complain!!!)

I didn't shoot him, but he did shoot a british merchant (I was behind him at the time

) I was tempted to go and put him at the bottom, but didn't.

This rasies a question, if you take out a Neutrals gun's, but don't sink him, do you suffer any penalty???

I don't see why you would be penalized. In fact, I'd say he's fair game seeing he's armed and in an enemy convoy. Sickem... I mean sinkem! LOL
