BdU usually has very good ideas, but on the other hand sometimes he has orders that just need to be broken - like the one in 1943 that orders one to try to engage aircraft instead of crash diving
The doc is just a template I made for Google Docs. It uses free fonts I downloaded from the internet. I run SH3 in windowed mode so it's easy for me to type my notes while the game is running:
The only problem is I lose sound when I write the notes, so I need to keep an eye on the crew texts in case they warn about an approaching airplane. I won't hear the warning if I'm writing
BTW If somebody wants the template for their own war diaries, I can upload it somewhere.
