Neutral, my $#%!

Jacques Uzi · 10-12-06, 06:16 AM

It was a dark and stormy night in 1940. Well, actually it wasn't stormy, there was no wind. But it was very dark. Anyway, I was attacking a convoy headed for the Irish sea and fired a salvo at a c3. All three torpedoes hit, and it turned out that i had destroyed a "neutral unit". What is that supposed to mean? I assume it must have been an american ship, but so what? It was a part of a convoy belonging to Die verdammte Engländer

Convoys don't belong to countries, ships do.

Been there, done that. My best patrol until now was ruined for sinking a "neutral", I had to "resign" my command of the U-46, a beatiful VIIB

Sh*t happens

That time i was executed.... when attempt to run the next mission..... a "dead" sentence apperas, may be for the masive loss of renown !!

You can sink anything you want if you don't mind losing renown.

If you blow up a hospital ship, it's like negative 10,000 or something like that and Hitler personally gets to pull your pants down on that one.

What's the point of a naval blocade if it can be broken by using ships flying the flags of "neutral" countries? Flags that in any case can't be seen at night... That was certainly not the german policy in WW2 (or in WW1 when the "neutral" Norwegian merchant fleet was decimated)

Is renown taken away when you sink hospital ships in the mods?
