I started out with only 800 after getting the officers and crew I wanted from the 1500 original Renoun. I then docked with the Bessel at Vigo Spain for resupply and found when I restarted I was promoted from Lt. Jr to Lt. Sr. A far cry from accululating 5000 in Renoun. So if there's a bug, it seems renoun has no bearing on promotions. I've even seen the same in Vanilla SHIII as I received the Knights Cross with Diamonds and Swords on my 7th patrol. That's the reason I said what I did above. |
Do you use GWX? If so you're promoted to Lt. Sr. as soon as you've got 1499 of renown. So if you pass the naval academy you should be promoted right away, even if you do not sink a single ship.
