I'd rather the Royal Sovereign was left as it is. I may work on it again. But you're welcome to use it as is within the AU.

Ok.
I was only going to change the hull colour to the green that I use.

yeah thats fine

I wonder ... why there is a 3 different size torpedos ?

they are from smallest to largest short medium and long range.

that's really redundant

There's no such thing as "nothing left to draw" If you can down 10 pints and draw, you're doing alright by my standards

And annoying if you run out of say the long range ones and have several short range ones left. What then? You close with the enemy and get depth charged / shot to buggery?

APDAF,

Torpedoes weren't sized differently for different ranges. Instead, you basically governed the engine to a certain limited number of RPM. This set a given speed, and a related range- slower speeds gave longer ranges, higher speeds gave shorter ones.

In this time frame, you looked at the type of ship you were targeting (warship, merchant or escort), the range to the target (at 'closest point of approach') and the most optimum firing position you could reach- which could be limited by the target's course/speed, own ship's course/speed, the presence/absence of escorts and visibility. You then selected the proper speed for the torpedo based on these factors; most of which had some preset values just for this.

Length and diameter were functions of application, not range.
