I play with GWX3, and I just docked at the Bessel supply ship at Vigo, Spain, and now I can't save my games mid-patrol?? Any suggestions would be helpful... Thanks!

I was going to answer this, but then saw it was a two-year old thread. And then I went back and saw all of your earlier posts.

GWX has an excellent manual, which you downloaded if you are, indeed, playing GWX. Moreover, this forum has millions of tips -- all searchable.

Now, I will go back to my game.

GWX does not award renown for doing your grid.
That's 700 renown per patrol.

Now, more on topic, regarding the attack.

Well done.

Yes. I'm moved by Kretchmer's style. First really successful attempts to sink effectively and on huge scale. And of course; NIGHT ATTACKS

Nice to see an old thread of mine come back to the surface.
