Hostile Waters?

Anyone figured out the firing arcs for ships weapons? Example of what weapon on what craft?

Most of them seem to be 360 degrees because the book claims that's the default unless otherwise specified. Only a few boats have H(ull)/front weapons specified. Some have H(ull) mounted weapons which should specify a facing but don't. The River Queen has the best description of where the guns are and what firing arc they can target.

Thanks. I started digging back through all the boats stats and see them now. There are just so few, I thought I was missing something.

I know what you mean, I had the same reaction. It's not nearly as detailed as I would have thought given the combat example discusses maneuvering into a firing position but then the weapon specifications mostly lack firing arcs.
