5 inch cannon on the cvs.
« on: April 10, 2011, 08:55:18 PM »
I found a operators manual for it :),   this could be helpful for the folks that can't hit anything with the cv guns.

I'm claiming Bravo Sierra on this "manual". Nowhere does it talk about first pulling up the clipboard and going to the "Hanger" screen in order to man the Field Gun.

I do ok, and I mean just ok on naval 5".  There are others, like Vilkas, who are top notch on them.

Since those are proximity fuses if you lead a con right you have a great chance of the kill.  Pheasant hunting as a kid helped.   :D
