SH3 commander is going to add a career expansion for you that keeps up with the ships you sink including where you sink them. ie. SS John James grid square AN52.
SH3 Commander will also provide a back story for your commander including place and date of birth, and when you finish the campaign what he did after the war... assuming he survives or is captured.
You can award medals from within SH3 Commander instead of waiting for them to become available in the game.
Malfunctions and sabotage become available from within SH3 Commander which will randomly (if selected ON) cause a system on your sub to become malfunctioned. to include fuel leaks, poor mirror alignment resulting in bluriness in the periscope, engine trouble resulting in flank speed becoming unavailable, sabotage to (deck plates i assume) which make the crush depth much shallower, compressed air will drain to zero over time.
the malfunctions and sabotage happen randomly and sometimes dont happen at all.
one other cool feature is the randomization of enemy AI sonar depth to simulate variable thermal layers... every time you load the game, the maximum depth of enemy AI sonar is varied anywhere from like 30 to 300 meters creating a sort of thermal layer effect.
i highly recommend it.
other good mods are the open hatch mod, weather fix mod, and pretty much anything they have over in the mods forum is solid gold
