Armed Merchants
 
Im a surface raider at heart and loved the start of the war, using my deck gun to take out cargo ships but now they are carrying guns. So can someone tell me what guns they are using? I've looked at several of the ships using the Ex. Camera and they all look the same to me. Like what caliber are they, are they 6 inch or 4 inch guns or 2 pounders??

American ships carried 3 and 5 inch guns

You got me thinkin

A sim that allowed you to take command of the German Commerce Raider EMDEN in WWI would be cool.

If you have never read the exploits of the EMDEN (actually I believe it was the second ship named the EMDEN) I would highly recommend it. The true events are more exciting than any fiction.

I just think that and EMDEN simulator would be most fun.

It gets tougher as time goes on, but when the Cargo boats first get the guns, you can disable them pretty quick. Start targeting the deck gun yourself, and learn where you need to aim to hit the deck guns. After a while I got pretty proficiant at this and was able to pop the guns off of my targets before they did any/too much damage to my boot.

:yep:
