I also use crew rotation. A little chart I've made for paper and dice tells me who gets transferred at the end of a patrol. Can be a real pain in the stern.
I also only allow myself to use 2 convoy contact/intercepts per patrol regardless of whether I get to attack the convoys or not. After that it's up to luck to be in the right place. Makes for longer patrols and forces me to watch fuel very closely. It also forces me home with torpedos still in the tubes sometimes.
I think it adds to the realism and makes good patrols something I really appreciate instead of having them be the norm.
Cheers!!!
