I was going to ask about deck gun reload times... I know you can set a minimum time with SH3Commander, but what would a realistic reload time be? I've yet to find a definitive answer (although, tbh, I haven't really tried to search very hard
).
I've a mate who used to be in the Royal Artillery, and he said that with a crew of three, his 105mm gun took about 4-6 seconds to reload... but said gun would be stationary, lashed down and stable... Also, ammo would be to hand.
I understand u-boats had to have ammo passed up from below, round by round. Add this to a pitching wet deck and the additional time it takes to lay the gun each shot because of the movement, and this time's got to be increased somewhat.
What settings do you all use? :hmm:
