Is that a feasible approach in SH3? Do many play this way? How hard is it to make it through, say, a patrol? A year?

For those of you who play this way, how is your play different than if you weren't playing this way? Sure, I expect you're more cautious, but _how_ more cautious?

I'm really looking for tips on playing to sink ships AND survive.
I play this way.Of all the mods that may make this game more realistic what could be more realistic than being killed for real?
Unless of course you have a witch doctor on board and he manages to revive you from the dead.
And yes,I for one get a more profound sense of danger playing this way as it keeps you on your toes.
