All slide rules work pretty much the same and instructions on how to use them can be found on the internet.

The no. 27N and 28N are exactly the same, the only difference is that 27N is the Japanese versio and 28N the English. These are very basic pocket sized slide rule (diameter 8.35 cm). These do not have trigonometry scales.

For in-game use you need either the no. 270N (outside diameter 10 cm) or the no. 300 (outside diameter 11 cm). Both these have scales on both sides and include trigonometry scales. The no.300 in the most suitable to use for calculations needed in game as the C, D and trig. scales are all on the same side. The no. 270N does not have these scales on the same side so you have to flip it over while doing calculations and it requires more steps.
