The principle behind the NYGM Feature Revisited is as we near the release of the NYGM TW 2.2, is to highlight important technical and game play aspects of the NYGM Tonnage War Mod that many new comers may not have seen or that the old salts missed during the busy hey days or have forgotten/take for granted since they have been there for so long.

The feature in the spotlight today is the NYGM Crew Management Mod

The NYGM Crew Management Mod is the first and only Crew Management Mod that has working Morale (disabled in the standard game) which is also the cornerstone of the NYGM Crew Management Mod.

By using Morale the NYGM Crew Management Mod provides a challenging yet intuitive and stimulating method for crew and submarine management without the tedium associated with stock SH3 “fatigue”…

With Morale we have also made you the Captain an integral part of the crew’s well being and where by your successes boosts the crew’s Morale!

Morale is a measure of the emotional condition, or confidence, of the crew. Morale has an impact of crew effectiveness. At 100% Morale the crew works on an 18 hour rotation where as when the crew’s morale is at its lowest point then the crew works on a 14 hour rotation.

While it will be harder when the crew’s morale is at it minimum, the NYGM Crew Management Mod does not ‘punish’ you.


Morale can be lost several ways, slowly over time until it reaches the minimum level and in this aspect the morale represents combat fatigue. Or quickly when crew are wounded and killed. In this aspect morale represents the emotional impact of seeing your comrades get wounded or killed.

Morale is gained by sinking ships. When you sink ships your crew’s morale increases as your crew partake in your successes as a Captain!

As you can see, the NYGM Crew Management Mod puts you in the role of a Captain whose actions, skill, luck, good and bad have a direct influence on your crew’s performance.

Now as a Captain you must carefully consider the danger to your crew as reckless actions that result in your crew being wounded or dying will impact all the crew.

The NYGM Crew Management Mod does not remove the management part. What is does, is make the management of your crew through Morale loss and Morale gain something worthwhile and interesting as you have an influence.
