You didn't know about that? It's been around for years.

Until now I had just GWX and the 1.6 by h.sie. I heard a few things about SH3 Commander like "You can change how long will your boat prepare for another patrol in harbour." I was like "Meh".

Now I pretty much exploded with anticipation and curiosity because fo that one image. I really have to take a look at SH3Commander at what it offers...

I like reviewing my personnel file after patrols and reading the names of the ships, their cargo and the crew losses associated with each sinking.

Last night I sank an armed passenger/cargo darkened west if Gibralter. It's cargo: passengers... 200. Only 40 survivors

Then there are sinkings like the larger merchant filled with explosives or military goods etc

The video clip is not part of SH3 Commander. Commander does allow you to pick your sub number, patrol grid, manage your crew, awards, promotions, better than SH3 does. It also has a option to randomize the gramophone tracks, randomize the crush depth of your sub so you just never know how deep you really can go. SH3 Commander really is a must have in my opinion. To paraphrase Karl Malden "Never leave base without it."

All the boats I served on had a "theoretical" crush depth....not that we were ever eager to test it. No one knew for sure and SH3Commander brings that to the game...I have had to go deep on a few occasions to elude depth charges and not knowing what the boat could take really had me nervous....you got to love SH3Commander. Couldn't agree more that it is an essential must have for SH3. Haven't lost a crewman to a bar fight yet Wish there was a SH4Commander too.

I took a VIIC/41 to over 400m once. I was sweating that one...

I've been unable to repeat that feat

Not to mention adjust parameters such as deck gun reload times and wave height, gives your captain a birth date and city, has a randomized crew name database with 1.7 billion possible names and my favorite: every single ship you sink gets an historically accurate name, crew number (including how many died in your attack) and cargo loadout.

I always say that what supermods do for your game, Commander does for your career.
