What if they are not just eye candy this time around though.
What if the engines are down and you have to actually go back there and do something to fix the problem.
I've been dc to point where all my engineers were killed and no one else could make the engines work,,
or your cook dies, and you are the only one on ship that knows how to get the soup just right.
or will the crew starve to death, because it is no one Else's job to cook?

Then you are in real trouble, because in the old European navies (especially the British and German) the engineers were not part of the command structure. They were considered something like wizards, and command officers were given no engineering training. The kaleun who could fix a diesel engine was a rare thing indeed.

I'm sure that you might be well able to cook, but anybody can open a can of beans and burn it. They won't starve, even if you're the one who's dead.
