Really love GW, but right now I'm really miffed

I read all the readme documentation. Read threads, FAQs and the like. So I'm very aware of the 'no upgrade, no change' before first patrol warning (although I have to say I never had a problem with the stock SHIII).

I created a new Kapitan and career, and immediately went on patrol. No upgrades. No changes. I didn't even add additional crew, or change the stock torpedo loadout. I just went immediately on a mission.

Guess what?

null renown. null awards. nada. nothing. Although *I* did get a promotion.

Whoopee.



I'm a bit miffed. I followed the instructions, and did everything according to the book, and I still got screwed.

As much as I really like GW 1.1, frankly it isn't worth it to me if I have to sweat every mission wondering if I'm gonna get screwed at the end. I never, ever had this problem with the stock game, or with RUb. And I've played them a lot.

I'll give this thread a day to see what responses I get before I yank GW.
