Well, that means Lütjens was a coward, too. He withdrew from the fight and did not chase PoW.

Edit: I forgot to mention his lack of "utmost exertion".

Hello everybody, @ Herr Nillson, regarding those differences once reduced in that scale, ... how many millimeters ( or better tenth or hundreds of millimeters ) that is going to impact ? Basically it is surely less than the width of the line connecting the single points. Are we talking tolerances ?...

PoW's map is a totally different kind of map. It just depicts course changes (probably when ordered) and the track shows a constant speed.

For what it's worth for, the PoW track can't be used together with the Suffolk and Norfolk tracks.

Where are the counter-arguments ? Please provide me your list so I can evaluate them with lot of pleasure. What do I have refu...

The battle reconstruction of Antonio is UNCHALLENGED up to now ( http://www.kbismarck.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=8231 ) and very different from the official British version.
