Germany Pre-1900

[miketr]

Other than putting notes in for Torps I fixed the issues; I think...

Will give things a once-over sometime today.

Thank you.  The fixed ones I attached the .sship file to so they can be looked at.

My comments on a legality skim.

Kleiner Kreuzer: Looks good, nothing jumping out at me as illegal.

Großer Kreuzer: Fix Torps.

Torpedoboot: Looking good.

Linienschiff: Torps on the Wilhelm der Große. Otto der Große looks good.

Also, I stickied your OrBat. If you would add the home bases of those squadrons, it would be nice.

AC-1, Germany Collier laid down 1895 (Engine 1890)

Displacement:
   1,501 t light; 1,572 t standard; 3,531 t normal; 5,098 t full load

Dimensions: Length (overall / waterline) x beam x draught (normal/deep)
   (295.28 ft / 295.28 ft) x 59.06 ft x (11.81 / 16.21 ft)
   (90.00 m / 90.00 m) x 18.00 m  x (3.60 / 4.94 m)

Machinery:
   Coal fired boilers, simple reciprocating steam engines,
   Direct drive, 1 shaft, 1,501 ihp / 1,120 Kw = 12.02 kts
   Range 21,940nm at 10.00 kts
   Bunker at max displacement = 3,526 tons (100% coal)

Complement:
   228 - 297

Cost:
   £0.093 million / $0.373 million

Distribution of weights at normal displacement:
   Armament: 0 tons, 0.0 %
   Machinery: 292 tons, 8.3 %
   Hull, fittings & equipment: 1,084 tons, 30.7 %
   Fuel, ammunition & stores: 2,030 tons, 57.5 %
   Miscellaneous weights: 125 tons, 3.5 %
      - On freeboard deck: 100 tons
      - Above deck: 25 tons

Overall survivability and seakeeping ability:
   Survivability (Non-critical penetrating hits needed to sink ship):
     22,561 lbs / 10,233 Kg = 208.9 x 6 " / 152 mm shells or 5.7 torpedoes
   Stability (Unstable if below 1.00): 2.15
   Metacentric height 7.5 ft / 2.3 m
   Roll period: 9.1 seconds
   Steadiness   - As gun platform (Average = 50 %): 100 %
         - Recoil effect (Restricted arc if above 1.00): 0.00
   Seaboat quality  (Average = 1.00): 2.00

Hull form characteristics:
   Hull has raised forecastle,
     a normal bow and a cruiser stern
   Block coefficient (normal/deep): 0.600 / 0.631
   Length to Beam Ratio: 5.00 : 1
   'Natural speed' for length: 17.18 kts
   Power going to wave formation at top speed: 33 %
   Trim (Max stability = 0, Max steadiness = 100): 50
   Bow angle (Positive = bow angles forward): 0.00 degrees
   Stern overhang: 0.00 ft / 0.00 m
   Freeboard (% = length of deck as a percentage of waterline length):
            Fore end,    Aft end
      - Forecastle:   20.00 %,  18.04 ft / 5.50 m,  18.04 ft / 5.50 m
      - Forward deck:   30.00 %,  14.76 ft / 4.50 m,  14.76 ft / 4.50 m
      - Aft deck:   35.00 %,  14.76 ft / 4.50 m,  14.76 ft / 4.50 m
      - Quarter deck:   15.00 %,  14.76 ft / 4.50 m,  14.76 ft / 4.50 m
      - Average freeboard:      15.42 ft / 4.70 m
   Ship tends to be wet forward

Ship space, strength and comments:
   Space   - Hull below water (magazines/engines, low = better): 28.5 %
      - Above water (accommodation/working, high = better): 153.9 %
   Waterplane Area: 12,475 Square feet or 1,159 Square metres
   Displacement factor (Displacement / loading): 499 %
   Structure weight / hull surface area: 64 lbs/sq ft or 312 Kg/sq metre
   Hull strength (Relative):
      - Cross-sectional: 0.92
      - Longitudinal: 2.11
      - Overall: 1.00
   Excellent machinery, storage, compartmentation space
   Excellent accommodation and workspace room
   Ship has slow, easy roll, a good, steady gun platform
   Excellent seaboat, comfortable, rides out heavy weather easily

5,000 nm range requires 828 tons of coal.
Cargo Bunkers have 2,698.l

Need to update OOB

[miketr]

OOB set by location.  I will cross check the ports to make sure that they can hold the assigned ships but it should be fine.

Need to create a 500 ton gunboat design.
