Default Rouge Ships?

so i was playin the convoy training mission to sharpen up my skills a bit (trust me those missions help a lot). well i had just made my first swipe of a salvo of 4 eels into the convoy and had advance into the middle of it at all ahead slow, normal maneuvers you know? i was using gods eye view at the time and decided to take a peak above. I counted 2 warships (a destroyer and a corvette). They were making circle around the area i had fired from as usual but somethin peculiar happened next.

I heard deck gun fire and machine gun fire and could see the impacts on the surface so i zoomed over to the warships and the corvette was charging at full speed and all guns blazing at the destroyer. At first I was like wtf m8? The destroyer was actually making evasive maneuvers but the corvette wouldnt let up lol. I started by hitting the bridge and knocked out its guns and smoke stacks. It just kept hammering the friendly destroyer. I completely forgot about the convoy and was too entertained by the fight. Eventually the corvette sunk the destroyer and then i surfaced like the Flying Dutchman and sent the corvette and her crew down to Davy Jones locker

Was the destroyer depth charging the area? Could it be that the corvette got caught in the blast and took it as a hostile act?

By jove, that destroyer just spilt my tea with that DC!!

ACTION STATIONS!!!! Show those boys they should never spill an englishman's cup of tea.

Boom!! Crack!! Yakayaka!!

She's going down sir!!!

Good job lads, now fetch me some more earl grey old chap.
