Q1 How do I fire a salvo of torpedoes?

Go to the 'Attack Map' - Blueish color which is just below the Navigation Tab . Then your see a small button with Tube/Salvo

Q2 How do I operate the Alberich?

Hmm can't answer that, i would like to know this too.

Q3 How Do I activate the search plane or other captain's abilities?

The main tab that has a picture of a sailor - 'Special Abilities' you get to choose there. When in port under the crew option where you can choose more crew members your see some with certain abilities like ''Stalker mode" add him and your boat will move faster when on the surface & he will give more info on your enemies. Has a limited ability lasts 6 hours at a time. Other one i grabbed was Master Engineer.

Q4 The green line that appears on the Navigation map appears to come from an aircraft with surface searh radar - is both a friendly and enemy aircraft shown in the same manner?
Could be wrong here but i presume the enemy line will show up in red.:hmm:

Many thanks for the excellent answers from the excellent people!

Cheers

Geoff
