Thanks guys - My order of priority was always 1. Machinist 2. Repairman 3. Gunner 4. Flak 5. Helm. Was just wondering what others thought and whether it was important. I guess I appoint machinist first because often the crew get tired on long missions. As has been said - a senior officer with the repair qualification can make the difference between survival or otherwise.

I also use SH3 Commander and award medals as I see fit. I tend to find that SH3 dishes them out rather freely - especially the iron crosses. With regards to getting medals yourself - it also seems a bit too easy to get the knight's cross + oak leaves + crossed swords. I always play with 100% realism and this is not that accurate - you would have had to do something pretty extraordinary to get some of these medals (not just survive till '42 for instance!).

Regards
