Superfiring a twin over the aft triple mount?  Hmmm.  I suppose this is a better arrangement if the vessel will be fleeing from enemy contacts or fighting in line actions.

I'm presently using "Fire When Ready" because that is what we game with  locally for larger actions in the predreadnought period.  It is still fuctional at present, but may become obsolete in the near future as it doesn't cover dreadnoughts very well.  When General Quarters 3 get a World War One suppiment I was thinking of using that as it can handle larger actions in the proper time period.

I've not gotten a handle on "War at Ses" yet.  Perhaps it is too detailed for my quick and easy type dice rolling battles (no ship models, just basic range bands, and assumed orientation of the vessels relative to each other based on preceived need of that vessel...is it advancing, retreating, fighting in line, rudder jammed, or evading smaller vessels?)

Quick and easy works for me.
Whatever makes it easy for the guys doing the hard work.
So 'ere's to you, Fuzzy-Wuzzy, at your 'ome in old Baghdad;
You're a pore benighted 'eathen but a first-class fightin' man;
We gives you your certificate, an' if you want it signed
We'll come an' 'ave a romp with you whenever you're inclined.
