And I just couldn't do it. I couldn't pop a cap on her. So I ordered us to dive quietly and we snuck away.

All that beautiful tonnage right in my sights, and I couldn't pull the trigger....

Interesting.

I have never blasted a Hospital ship, and I see them semi-frequently in War Ace.
Saw one travel by the shore units near Trondhiem, I passed departing into the channel and it got blasted. It had a Norway flag durring the Norway ops, clearly enemy but still. All those purty nurses.. vs. game mechanics. How fair is that?

Attacking hospital ships is just not done. Besides, as BBW said above, there's no tonnage, your career may end or you lose a lot or renown.

Really? The game might end your career if you sink a hospital ship? I didn't know that... :hmm:
