Although I think the 'target' ships had British flags but I might be wrong. Yeah I noticed my starting renown was 2500. However, I got the renown fix mod and now my initial renown is 1000. Hoping it doesn't vanish cuz I intend to sink each one of those ships. Juicy targets aren't easy to let go.
You know, the first time I went through that August 1939 patrol, I didn't really bother to ID the target ships but the "small convoy" I was pretty sure had British flags. Of course I didn't look too closely because I had orders to attack it anyway. Then when the batteries at Pillau opened fire on me, I figured they must have been red German flags and I just wasn't paying attention to the emblem in the corner.

So, I dunno - it's possible that in August 1939 if you open fire on anybody, everybody declares war on you, because you're a rogue kaleun just firing away at whatever crosses your path.

Anyway - the principle is the same, everybody then is a neutral so if you fire on someone (even under GWX's "orders" to practice ur skillz) you've declared your own private war on someone and the game's AI reacts accordingly.

Best thing about that 7th flotilla pre-war career start is, if you choose it and then don't sink anyone, you get to keep that little bit of extra renown GWX gives you.

That's not cheating, Jim. You offered a gift and we took it.

I also edited my renown so I get 99% no matter how I set it up. On the other hand I never use renown for anything - ever.

I'm pretty sure I never realized there was extra renown to be had with a 7th flotilla start until you mentioned it in another discussion about this same issue.

Me too! And once again, I'm pretty sure it were Jimbuna's instructions what showed me the way. He's a veritable font of all knowledge when it comes to cheating, er, I mean, getting the most out of your SH3 experience.
