Hardcopy Recognition Manual for GWX 3
 
Hardcopy Recognition Manual

Hi guys - well, I had a day off today and decided to do something I've wanted for a while. A real, hardcopy recognition manual for Silent Hunter, that you can use without flicking through that awful one on the Atk Periscope view which gives you RSI trying to find a small freighter...

To that end all the ships are in tonnage order. When you see a ship you can tell roughly what its size is, so you should be able to jump straight to the relevant section. It also groups similar-sized ships together, so it'll aid in gauging sizes by identifying similar features (similar mast/funnel sizes for example).

It's a PDF file, download, enjoy - that's it! I'd recommend printing it A5 if you can, because there's lots of pixellation. This is what I call a sledgehammer product - this is literally a collection of screenshots cut together on MS Word and saved as a PDF. So it's not aesthetically perfect, a bit rough around the edges but it'll do the job.

I'm aware there are some of these out there already, but the only ones I could find were in German. Also, I know people have many MANY mods out there which change the merchant fleet, but since I only have GWX and OLC gold I thought this would be closest to most people's fleets.

I have kept the screenshots and Word file so if anyone has any huge gripes with this let me know and I'll try and amend.

Thanks guys! Jimbuna, sorry forgot to put that on there. Certainly will be, probably in the next week or so when I get another day off to attack it properly.

Even when 'normal' there far from being the best storage site.
