As I said before, I fear the overall tonnage sunk by all boats is not going to be truly representative of the aces. The game tends to simulate the aces much better than it simulates KptLt. Hans Sixpack who went on 6 patrols and sank little more than a few smaller ships. I suspect that if we could break down the numbers we would find a marked difference in tonnage per ship between aces and ordinary commanders.

Anyway, the next version of Jaesen's SH3 Commander will have a new random tonnage feature which is based on Observer's mod. The feature is fully user-configurable, so the player can adjust the base tonnage figure for each ship type as well as the tonnage range (%+/- for all ships), and how much the ships increase in tonnage as the war goes on.
