Re: Couple of Quick GQ3 Questions

Thank you Mal.

Does that mean the use of the bold outline boxes was an error, or was
it used to differentiate between the 5.9's and the 4.1's?
(for me personally, 2 different sizes of thin outline boxes would
have done that better).

Btw, brilliant job on the deluxe ship logs, the amount work that
saves for later war scenarios, especially where ships vs aircraft or
subs apply.
I'll look forward to the US and Japanese ones.

regards,

Andy
