promotions???

Hmmm...

I recently seemed to have got 'promoted' BACK to Lt. Sr, from Kap. Lt.

(My longest surviving career to date, from '39-late '42)

I was saving up all my reknown as much as I could so I could buy 'big things' when they come along...and by late 1940 was made 'KapitanLeutnant'. Didn't even knew GWX/SH3 went up that far, so was pleasently surprised.

However now its 1942, and after the last patrol (21) I got another msg 'You've been promoted'. Wow, I thought....more ranks? Yet when I went in to look, it said 'Lt. Sr.' I checked to see if I'd accidently sunk neutrals....I hadn't.

I had just spent some reknown on upgrades though. (I think I was over 10,000)

Anyone else ever had this happen? Do I have to work my way up again, from a new starting point, as stated previously in thread?

Cheers.

Yes, it happened to me a few times. Got my self a new boat, or piece of equipment, and got demoted.

It always happens when your renown falls below your current rank's threshold.
