These offer two things, they are a bit easier to read, and they cover the evolution of ships through the war.We all know HMS Incontinent got more AA of some sort at the expense of surface fire power ... but what exactly was taken off and added ... here it is! And you don't have to research a slew of books because someone else did it!Very useful and makes game set up much easier.

To add to my previous post... There are 119 pages of Charts for the Royal Navy! Big ships, little ships even the AMCs. All the escorts down to PCs. Crew size, Aircraft number of type ... it's all there. Submarines are well documented, if not perhaps perfect (another fellows saying some things were left off of the GQ 3 charts, but Mal obviously put years into researching these logs. Now NOT Every SINGLE ship is in there, but every variation on each class seems to be covered.The German logs include many of the planned, but never completed ships, like the O,P,Q PanzersciffesAircraft carriers (including the converted merchant and other planned carriers). All in all, a much more complete set of logs. Plus you get the Polish and Norwegian Navies, both small, but interesting, and the Poles fought the whole war along side the British! I cannot overstate how much more you get than what comes with the normal GQ 3 logs. The Regular logs are Chevy's ... serviceable but plain and all tend to look the same... these new ones are definitely more the Cadillac or Mercedes-Benz Logs .... each an individually distinct log of that ships modification through the war!

Sorry to be pedantic but this is pigeon-German. The plural of das Panzerschiff (the armoured ship, pronounced dass pantsershiff) is die Panzerschiffe {dee pantserschiffe}. Panzerschiffes would be genitive - i.e. of the or belonging to the ship.

Ja Sicher...Aber die leute hier sind Americanische! so I am using the English plural rather than the German, which few would understand. I admit my very limited (and much forgotten) German is not perfect, but I do try. My Mac will do an umlaut, but most windows PCs can't read it ... bear with us!Defense vice Defence is the difference between American English and British English.... most spell checkers will show either spelling as mis-spelled depending on which version of English you have chosen for your computer.Jim
