Few things about GWX 2.1

First of all BIG THANX for this eXpansion!!!

Now the questions/thoughts:

1) Renown: Yesterday I finished a superb patrol (Still I cannot believe). I managed to attack a convoy and sunk 4 escorts and 7 merchants (about 20.000tons) for a mere 85% hull integrity due to escort gunfire. After reaching home base I got about 350 renown points.

Is the penalty for been hit too high? Are the points for each sinking too low?

2) Flotilla Transfers: Would be possible to assign a standard flotilla u-boot when transfer occur? Example: Playing 1st flotilla (type IIa), transfer to 2nd flotilla and get a type VII or IX instead of getting the same type II. Really not a big deal since I changed my renown points to 2500 and "bought" a type VIIb, but it would be nice (if possible) to get the u-boot exchanged directly.

3) Patrol orders: Could be possible to receive new orders (after finished current) while on patrol ala SH4?

That's all. Again thanks.

1.) The amount of renown also depends on your realism settings, if you play at only 25% realism you will get 25% of maximal possible renown.

2.) If you are transfered to different flotilla you always keep your old boat, I don't think it's possible to change that. If you have a Type II and transfer to a flotilla that does long range patrols you should take care to have enough renown to get a long range boat.
