NOTES:

ROS is Reduced Operating Status. Numeral is number of days required for mobilization.

RRF is Reserve Ready Force. Numeral is number of days required for mobilization.

For game purposes, all ships are assumed to have an average topspeed of 15 knots (360 nm per day), with the exception of the SL-7 fast vehicle cargo ships, which can reach a topspeed of 33 knots and has an average topspeed of 30 knots (720 nm per day).

It is our considered opinion that these ships will be deployed in time so that they will arrive in Germany no later than Jan. 20, or in Marseilles by no later than Jan. 18.

To determine how long it will take to make the voyage to a particular European port, use the latitude and longitude coordinates of the port's location, then use the Marine Navigation Calculator to find out how many days and hours it will take. (This calculator is also located in the Planning Tools area of your HQ). Note that these timings represent the shortest possible times using the Great Circle route. In the event, the enemy ships may use a slower but less obvious route in order to avoid obvious chokepoints.
