Awards I give based on RL criteria, rank ditto - as you can tell I am one of the hard-core ones!

I've tinkered with the values required for medals and such, because I felt I was getting them too soon to be "realistic" - which basically just means that it felt "wrong" to be getting something for what seemed like too little in the way of accomplishment given what I typically accomplish per patrol with the realism options where they are right now. I mean, I finished my last patrol in August 1940 and the game gave me swords AND diamonds to my KC with oak leaves and I'm like, lolwut?
I went into my career files and took them away once I exited the game, but I'll probably get them again if I do anything worthwhile at all on the current patrol. So I will either adjust all the values upwards again for my next career, or else amp up the realism a bit.

Not true, when I joined up they gave me my own boat right off. What can I say... they just
