If injured, well, then we better have a good medic on board. But how this could be implemented

Maybe a 50/50 chance of a having the career pronlonged, depending on how much injury and how good the medic is (regular, veteran or elite).

Good observation here.

Could also have it based on how long it takes for you to get back to port plus the medic skill and severity of injury. Maybe the captain will be out of service for a number of months while recovering.

Wouldn't that be something: You're severely wounded, the 1WO gets the boat back safely, you're expecting (hoping) to spend some time in the hospital and get back to action, only to find that your career is over because you lost a leg or arm?

"You must gather your party before venturing forth !"

I'm sure someone out there will get that joke.

it took me a couple of hours to get what they wanted from me with that message, way back then... almost deleted Baldut's Gate

Edit; sorry, I meant Baldur's Gate.

It sounds a lot like The Lord of The Rings. Not sure though as I only saw one of the 3 parts in english.

Nah, it's a recurring "theme" in Bioware games... bloody pathfinding AI.
