I missed the Nagato battleship I was aiming at and instead hit a carrier far behind.

Sorry, It seems that none of us newbies can elaborate exactly how much we need the Auto Speed Determination of the chronometre to even get started using a manual tdc. Because the issue is this simple: We cannot hit anything of what we are aiming at. As in, nothing, maybe by luck, if I crazily enough manage to determine the speed, by a wild guess, then maybe I hit once or twice.

Right now, It would be easier for me to put everything on Zero on the TDC, and just aim ahead of the enemy ship I`m shooting at, and simply develop a feel for how many clicks in the periscope, ahead, of the enemy ship, I have to shoot, to get a hit.
But for real.. Who had time and resources enough to practice that.. that person would not be a sub captain for long..


S! to all
