All seem to be of "straight pull type", third is different (rotating bolt). Perhaps there will be a problem with scope.

They are all rotating bolt.

The scope on the sniper version is slightly offset to the left so it does not interfere with the action.

Very nice.
But I'm not sure about the position of the crane right next to the midship turret. Right now you Can't use him for a full broadside.

It is a folding crane.

Post subject:  Re: Crovenian Empire

why would you use the folding crane when you have a mast next to your boats, on which you can attach a crane?

It would be more complicated to mount as use a crane in that position, I'd think.

And plus that mast won't be there in the refits.

My comments and questions about it (and feel free to critic my ships back ;) )

- mismatched styles of 'towers' stern director/masts/bridge director all different,
- clumped up funnels,
- only 2 screw on a big ship,
- boat crane in the way of gun, fit a folding crane later just use one of mast to start with,
- looks quiet big for 1911 in service (is that commissioning or lay down it makes a big difference in 1911 !), and looks small for guns (might fit with 2 screw and low speed ?)

It does have nice bits of the wrong stuff (like low secondaries that makes it believable)
