WELCOME ABOARD!

1. Why do we have the observation periscope? Isn't the attack one sufficient? Has anyone ever used the obs periscope?
The observation periscope is located so it is convenient to use for "observing". It also cranks up to 78 degrees so you can look for airplanes before surfacing. The Attack 'scope is made to be efficient when attacking the enemy. The reality: it's good to have two in case one gets wrecked.

2. "Hard to Port" will make a 90 degrees turn to left, correct? Cause it seems more than 90 degrees when it does it... :-S
As noted, "Hard to Port" puts the rudder all the way left, where it will stay until you center it again. Likewise "Hard to Starboard", except of course starboard is right. "Rudder Amidships" centers the rudder.[/quote]

6. I believe the 30 is the "current" contribution to his compartment, where the 105 is the max. You will see the first number increase significantly when a sailor is on watch versus off duty. I haven't figured out the exact formula but it seems to be related to this.
