How To Get Me Mitts On More Medals??

von hally · 08-04-09, 02:27 PM

Hi All

what has to be done to fill in that lovely wee box on my desk thats always missing medals. i'm running at around 57% realism, with days spent in base at 50 to simulate a shorter career, but i never seem to fill that little wooden reminder that im never going to be an ace

its getting that bad that i'm taking chances at the periscope station....staying that little bit longer to get one more eel off, that when i tumble into the zentrale...i make my excuses (bad visibility/rough seas) to my crew as to why that escort got a fix on me somehow

is it tonnage only? or is there another way to have doenitz pin those shiny things upon my beating chest?

I'm not sure but it might be connected to your realism settings.

Since medals is just a renown issue, I suggest you improve that realism level and put more torpedos on target. Well, don't waste them on them either. And don't ignore your deckgun.

X number of ships sunk= Y amount of renown= Z medal.

Be More Aggressive.

honestly i'm thinking of altering the renown factors for the medals so i don't get so many, i'm on my 8th patrol and i've already got my ritterkreuz with swords, oakleaves and diamonds.
what on earth can they bestow upon me next?!
i'm not even past oberleutnant zur see yet!

WOOHOO!

wait a mo, its 1940 in my game, the allies haven't started heavy research into penicillin yet!

Any booze, free or not, is not a good medicine against syphillis
A pass to high class brothels would me a nice add
