I don't mind the renown system, as it is supposed to reflect your credibility with BdU and base commanders. No, no one had to 'buy' equipment, but when it was brand new and there was only one, it could go to the first boat in, or it could go to somebody's 'favorite son'.

I agree with GWX about not getting renown for just doing your job. Myself, I go to the patrol area for a week, and roll a die if I've had no luck. 1 - I pick a nearby grid and go there. 2-6 - I stay for another week, and roll again, this time 1-2 taking me elswhere. If I roll really badly and stay there for six weeks, too bad. Usually I find something no matter where I am.
