[Sailor Steve]

Ever since SH1 I've been in the habit of running several side-by-side careers, one in each flotilla. And, like you, if one dies or retires a new one takes his place, starting in the same month. That said, every time a new mod comes out I feel compelled to start all over again using it.

So, in five years of playing this game, I've never made it past mid-1940 - not from dying, but from starting over every few months.
