My problem - GWX has assigned me to patrol grid BF10. Hoever, my map only shows BF as starting with BF11.
Any ideas? other than ignore them and go my own way - after all I won't get any renown for a patrol regardless.

The first patrol is for shake down purposes only.....do not attack anything you come across unless you are confident of not taking damage yourself.
Remember....if you attack a neutral you will receive negative renown and all neutrals will consider you hostile for a period of 24 hours. (the 7th flotilla has a few target ships and a 2 ship convoy, it therefore affords you a little extra renown to start off with)
On the 4th you should receive a radio message instructing you to return to base. Hit the Esc key and do so.....you should previously set your days in base to 20 using SH3 Commander.
If you aren't already, consider a transfer to the 1st or 2nd Flotilla, this should see you well placed for a patrol commencing from Kiel or Wilhelmshaven on the 24th August (providing you sustained no damage in your first patrol) and in good time to get into a favourable position prior to the commencement of hostilities.
Good Hunting
