Not so; Commander starts in September. However, JScones has said the next version may let you start in August.

On the other hand, Commander does let you change your orders (you can tell BdU what to tell you to do:rotfl: ). Set your starting grid for AO95, and you will get the renown for going to Danzig...unless you're using GWX, in which case you don't get 'going to' renown anyway.

I think.

What do you mean by don't get 'going to' renown in GWX? I've never paid attention but do you not get the 500 renown for going to the patrol grid from Bdu in GWX?

My understanding is that you get renown for going to your patrol grid in GWX 2.0, but will not in GWX 2.1.

You may be right about 2.0 and 2.1; all I know is they said they thought it was silly to be rewarded for following orders.

They may be right. It doesn't matter to me; I always spend my patrol where I'm sent. If I don't see a single ship there, well, that happened to a lot of real kaluens too.

Indeed.

And even if the grid you're sent to patrol is empty, just set your route to go through places where is surely ships to sink (Like visiting the Scapa flow, or going thro the Irland-Brit channel), while your on your way to that damned grid.

On the patrol I'm on now (GWX2.0) the F8 window never changed to having reached the grid nor the 24 hrs accomplished.
