So how do you properly deal with dead crew? In-game option to bury the dead but what happens then, is this a burial at sea how does it affect renown etc. Do you hang onto the corpse untill your near homeport or just let Sh3commander deal with it. While that might sound cold, it's just a game so my question is basicaly about the game mechanics.

On the other hand I can't help but wonder how IRL Kaleuns - Crews dealt with the dead. I mean where the boat was patrol and the circumstances had to affect what they did with corpses. Not like they had extra storage. So Im thinking a traditional burial at sea time providing.
There was a discussion on that question some time ago. In real life you would burry them at sea but if you do it SH3 won't ist the sailor as KIA. Only if you keep him aboard till your patrol is over he is shown as KIA, otherwise he never existed.
