Default How many careers will it take to play the war?

I am going to do a fun test. I have mostly played the start of the war, then some escort gets me, and I start over again.

This time I will play that if my guy dies, I start a new one at the start of the month he died in. And see how many it takes me to get all the way to the end of the war.

Feel free to take a pool to guess how many it will take.


First up

Gerhard Dittrich - 2nd Flo - U-32 - Type VIIB

The later you're in the war, the more often you'll have to reincarnate. I think too it could be done under 10. By the way, are you checking the realistic career length option on SH3 Commander in?

No I have not, as the idea is to have the guy go until he is Lost in Action.

First Real patrol - 28,000 tons sunk, but this is early on when almost all the ships are solo and no real threats that you can avoid.

I have Crew Transfers, Historic Uboat, and random number of days in port.
