Narvik: safest place to start?

Wondering though, if I did find the Nelson or Warspite, and I would sink it...will they be dead in the rest of the campaign, or will they return to life?

They return whenever they are scripted in the campaign. Somebody recently posted a screen shot of them killing the Hood twice in one patrol.

Did they get the tonnage twice?

Unfortunately yes.

I would just have to play it off as sinking 2 Hood Class boats, and not the Hood twice. I'd just imagine the other 4 (?) hood classes were never canceled.

If you are using Real Ship Names in SH3 Commander, it should ascribe different names (two ships from the same class) to the ships once you finish the patrol and update your personnel file. That function keeps track of which ship names it has used; I don't think it will use the same one twice unless you sink enough ships in a particular class to have gone through all the available names.

Unfortunately in this instance there is only one in the class:

0001=HMS Hood
