Seriously.... Matt.... wheres the Surcouf at? DM said he submitted it like 3 months ago, and still no Surcouf..... I NEED Surcouf, otherwise I don't play this game, or ACTA(I'm too lazy to do multiple orders...)...

Um, from the French? (just poking you Chern, lol) :lol:
DM said:Ok, I have the definitive definition of Surcouf's firing arcs, taken from the official builders drawings. The turret traverse is 135 degrees to either side. Ammunition stowage is 300 rounds total (not 300 per gun as often quoted). The aft torpedo "turret" has a 300 degree arc centred astern, so it can fire port, starboard and aft.
Another interesting fact - immediately forward of the reserve 550mm torpedo stowage was the wine stowage: 5.2 tonnes (5200 litres) plus containers. Presumably consumption had a significant effect on the trim of the boat (not to mention the crew!).
Now that I ahve that I'll finalise a short article for S&P.
