i start the game in sept. of 39, out of the 7th and transfer later. i play DiD but, when my career is destroyed, ill pick back up with a new crew and uboat and out of the flotilla i was operating out of. so if i am KIA in june of 42, ill start a new career in june of 42(using SH3 commander). this way, i get to do the whole war, and see the whole game.
i think of myself as my own, replacement.
oh, btw, ive lurked here for ages, but just now picked up the game again after GWX was released.
