In the meantime though, I only use the centiradian marks in the scope, because I normally shoot at such low gyro angles that range doesn’t matter. I would suggest you do the same. RAOBF is a handy tool, but there was a reason why they dispensed with it (as well as the split-prism stadimeter) on scopes after 1939 (namely on the C/2 Stand-Sehrohr attack scope you see in game in the tower), because mast heights were seldom known or relied on, nor was that information really needed when in practice they minimized their gyro angles making range have no impact on the lead angle.
Thanks I’ll take some shots. I agree with gyro angles and I use fixed wire attack. The thing is it does matter with fat torps. Also, other than using WEPS or Obs officer, there is no way of getting range during pursuit phase or when spotting a ship in the distance.
