Jabba, did I ever send you that 'shipbucketed' version of the Queen Mary? If so, you need to use those turrets, since the Erin had a newer version of the
cal.45 13.5 in guns in modified turrets, similar to hose of the
QM. This applies to the KGB:s and Iron Dukes as well. I might have myself a go on the latter, since Psilander's version is not accurate in many aspects.

Beautiful! It's nice to see someone finally doing these "one-off" dreadnoughts. :)
