Looking at the original German Ship Recognition Manual (1 example), each page had about 6 ship silhouettes with information around it. There was 1 silhouette for each ship at 90 deg AOB.

Note:
I'm aways willing to share my work, but as this involves other mods it might not be possible. But I'll try if enough are interested.

As I'm a stickler for realism whenever possible, this is the proposed layout.

Due to game limitations, this is how I'll do the sils layout.
One ship per page. The background should be white paper with smudge marks, but might have to compromise due to glaring effect. A silhouette at 90 deg AOB (all Black), with original data at top plus armoury and any other info under the sil. This will make it look like a manual with similar pages.
Done in all 3 languages for compatability. Although I don't speak the other 2.
Its more or less a standard layout.

This might make recognition more difficult, but I think more realistic.

Ships Involved.
GWX 2.1 set
Community set
AOTD AA Ship set
Arrow Tanker v1.2

I've undertook this project as some people said they were getting CTD's. I can't go fault finding until I tidy up the Ship Files. Doing that became a bigger task than I thought, so I might as well do improvements.

Any comments are welcome.
