I have a personal set of rules that i try to follow when for sh3 career games:

Basicaly:
1. Boat must not be too famous or over used by others. (you'll never see me with u505, u96, u47, etc, although i broke this one when starting with u123, all the more reason i need to abandon that one)

2. Tower Emblem must match the one acutally used by the boat. ( I coudlnt find U-178's unforutnatly)

3. Start time must at least be in the same year as the boat first appeared. Not neccessarly accurate by month and day, but at least the same year it was commissioned. (following this rule, then i should start jan42 instead of fudginig it and starting nov41 for u-198)

4. Must belong to same flotilla it did in real life.

5. Dead is dead. Period.

6. Choose a new boat, dont reuse one you already tried.

So to answer the question, I had already started U-198. I failed. THat boat is done. Dead, end. period. So using that number, with that emblem would be going backwards in a manner of speaking. I had already used that one. So it would be restarting.
Do you play WaW? It sounds like you would fit well there, as long as you could start man targetting and man plotting. I'm thinking of getting in on the next one (i.e. WaW II). Any interest?
