C35 8,8 cm gun/L45 Deck gun specifications

Postby space pope on 28 Feb 2012 21:33

Hi, I'm running a WW2 RPG and the players are likely to soon encounter a U-boat. I have stats in the game book for the 88mm Flak/PaK but I am not sure if the u-boat deck gun is comparable or not. If anyone could give me an idea if the guns were similar in penetration, velocity, etc, I would appreciate it. If they are close enough I will just use the stats I have, if they are significantly different I will try and come up with some new stats. Thanks.

Reason: generally 8,8 cm - never 88 mm. It was the "Acht-acht" (eight-eight) not the "Achtundachtzig" (eightyeight) !!!!
