One of the great things about the dynamic campaign is that it lets us as players set our own goals. Getting through the war is mine this time out. Next it maybe tonnage accrued during a set number of patrols.

I don't think going through the entire war would be that rewarding for a tonnage hound. For me it's meant hundreds of crash dives, trying to get to the PA, sinking whatever tonnage comes within range, and getting back to port. It's often very boring and work-like, by the way. But, it's a goal this time out, and with months invested it's become something worth seeing through.

I'm sailing a VII-C/4, with just about every option except radar and sonar. The heavy flak guns have more than payed for themselves when they were needed to fight off aircraft while charging batteries. Six flak-gunners were killed in a fight early in '44, and fortunately there haven't been casualties since.
