SOS-rule club

Hi to all enthusiasts of realistic subsims! (SH3 and GWX rule!)

I have been reading many many threads in this forum and stumbled more than once across phrases like:
"No, I don't go for those small merchants, they don't yield enough tonnage!"

This is the point where I say: NOOOOO!!!
Never ever would any Kaleun have said: "No, he's too small, let him go, we'll find something bigger!"

Therefore I SUGGEST a new rule (like DiD):
SOS: Sink on Sight (I hope this makes sense, because my English is not so good)

What does it mean?
Well, it simply means that you
- have to engage every enemy ship that you have spotted by your sensors (visual, acustic, radar, etc.)
- SHOULD engage every contact report that you receive (unless out of reach)
- have to run multiple attacks on a spotted convoy (unless you are out of torpedos, your sub is severely damaged or the convoy is out of reach) - don't just take out the big ones!

This rule does NOT apply to enemy aircraft, you may crashdive anytime you want, as I always do.

So, I hope you'll join this exquisite club!

Any suggestions and improvements for the rules are welcome!
