Try this....remove all the men and replace them with men that are at the bottom of the list you can choose from. They do get better over time. You can award you medals that also make them better on the next patrol. Also, when you arrive to port, dump at least half your crew and replace them. Normally, a good percentage of the crew moved on to other subs or became a skipper in their own right. One member rolls a pair of dice to see who get cut. He also rolls the dice to see if his radar will be broken and if broken, he rolls again for the amount of hours until it is repaired. So, in game the player shuts it off and does not turn it on until the time rolled on the dice is reached. It would be nice if we had this built into the game but this seems to be a good way to make it a bit more submersive.
