You get 100 renown for doing the school. Applies to all profiles, so you dont
need to do it again if you change your player profile.

Is there any indication that you completed them? I did two last night and it doesn't seem to acknowledge that they were done anywhere. Do I have to create a career profile first?

I guess this means you had the right connections in the Navy?

Getting 5000 renwon at the beginning of the career means you're a son of an admiral, getting 100 renown at the beginning means you've slept with the daughter of an admiral.:p:rotfl:

Have you tried clicking the stem at the very top of the watch? That's how you get it to track elapsed time (which you can then use with the "3-minute rule" or other such method to determine speed from plotted ponits on your nav map). I've seen some other posts where folks were trying to just click anywhere on the watch like you did with SH3, but you have to click on the stem at the very top to start/stop this SH4 watch working (which makes more sense when you think about it, but I'm not sure if it's actually documented that way anywhere).

Good luck!
