I had the same lust to try out fancier boats and ammo, and I pored through the various config files. I was able to make torpedoes drastically less expensive (like 40 renown points for a Type XI experimental eel) and happened upon the points rewarded for arrival at, and completion of, my patrol zone. In that career, I earn 4,500 for reaching my patrol zone and another 6,500 for completing it.
Accurate? Geez, no, but it's pretty easy to have a renown over 100k after just a couple of patrols, making it possible to get the latest and greatest stuff, even if it's just to be able to try out the "big boys' toys".
I stopped feeling guilty after my first 45,000 renown patrol. That's just one of my 8 characters; I leave the others at stock reward levels, but it gives those guys an idea for an upgrade path.
