Patrol assignments

[von hally]

lo bulleye

personaly i do head for my patrol grid and then patrol it for 24hrs.....thats not to say i dont get sidetracked along the way by any contacts i encounter.

if youre using gwx2.1...then the renown you used to get for patrolling your given sector has been removed.

i kinda like the patrol grid...as it gives me initial purpose and general area to head for....
as for r/l

well i think commanders were given orders like these...but were updated quite a lot over a patrol. depending on the kind of mission.... a commmander might stay away from enemy shipping , as remaining undetected was more important than tonnage. reports from bdu would update continually when on patrol...giving new areas of operation and even orders to meet other boats that had damage problems and supply shortages.
