Here's what I always do. Every time I end my patrol and upon leaving base for the new patrol, I immediately save the game by naming it with my home base name, followed by the current date. I then delete the old "Autosave On Leaving Base" and the "Autosave On Entering Base" (keeping the new ones of course). Lastly, I deleted the older dated patrols and keep only the current date. This way, I always avoid having these files grow too large.
