    We’ve now added a Quick Reference Sheet to the website, for those who have eagerly been awaiting this:

    Hope you find it useful!

    Larger caliber guns produce plumes that can aid in targeting.

    Can you fire those weapons first, so the rest of the weapons on the same boat can potentially benefit? Or is all shooting simultaneous?

    If you are shooting and your vessel is at Full Speed (a -1 modifier) and it’s over 30cm (a -2 modifier), do both modifiers apply? Or only just one? I’ve heard arguments both ways.

    In the meantime, what I’m painting today.

    Blipvert: on my QRS it’s: Full Speed -2; Over 30cm -1. I agree with your question, but are we reading from the same hymn-sheet?

    And “Full Speed” for a Trawler shooting might be 12 knots (-2); whereas 25 knots for an MTB is not (thus no Modifier)?

    A question of relative stable platforms?

    George, that’s the issue. My tramp steamer moving at full speed, a dramatically bigger vessel, is -2 while my bouncing cork of a PT boat moving at twice the speed, but still not full speed, is minus nothing?

    The wording of the speed of the vessel part needs to be changed, to be clear. Either change the speeds do the releative movement (full and 2/3) or real distances should be used (30cm and 36cc [or whatever number seems right]).

    Elcee, I agree.

    For completeness – the 3pdr entry should be included on the QRS’s Damage table also (we’re assuming along with the 37mm / 40mm line too). (?)

    I tried to boil the errata’d QRS down to 2 sides so you could reduce clutter. This is the “easy print” version. The wording remains faithful to the Warlord one as much as possible, with all that entails

    Nice one Renko, but the Mines are missing from the damage table 🙁

    Good Catch

    and a lucky one as that is probably the only spot on the QRS I can squeeze another line in without major rejig.
