Awarding medals with SH3 Commander?

GJO · 02-15-14, 09:51 AM

I currently have a cold and I blame one of my crew who keeps coughing! I am sure that I must have caught the lurgy from him so if I find out who it is, I will be stripping him of all medals and promotions . . .

What do you mean "it is only a game"?

You need a break.

I assign each crew member a role and a section after the first patrol, which is out of harbour and back.
Change renown, upgrade...why go to battle with less than is available to you?

The very reason I gave up on my previous career, when I got my type XXI. Things just became uninteresting.
I know, I know, I have yet to try GWX.

I took an instant dislike to the XXI the moment I drove it out of the showroom. A quick spin around the Bay of Biscay was enough to convince me it just didn't have any.....character, unlike my old tub which I'd had since '41.

Took it back for a refund but my old boat had been scrapped (wear 'n' tear) so I gave that career the push. It puzzled me why the XXI required such a large crew if it's so advanced? Pffffff!

Give the Type XXIII a spin, two eels and no reloads...makes you a little more choosy on your choice of targets and an added bonus, it replaces the Type XXI.

Large boat with more equipment that had to be mantained. A normal boat would have just two electric propulsion engines. The XXI had four. A Type VII had 124 cells that had to be checked, refilled etc. A Type XXI had 372. And so on.

You're familiar with the show, spend some time in Canada?

He was by far my favorite character and he had the coolest boat.

Never been to Canada, but got the show here in Ireland all those years ago......

Hi guys.

I modified my basic.cfg for more officers and pettyofficers and changed the crew_config_**1.cfg. So at the beginning of the war i always start with 8 officers (lowest rank) and 40 pettyofficers (type VII and IX). They all have their qualis - but only the lowest experience. Because of the settings in the basic.cfg they get only promotions or awards for more then 25ooo tons. So it´s difficult to get them awarded or promoted.
I do it in this way because (in my opinion) at the beginning of the war the crews were well teached but without experience. Later they got more experience but less training.
