The info contained could easily just be a text post, no?
I downloaded it because I was worried that one of the "special" abilities might mess up the speed of the torpedoes which would cause havoc with any Dick O'Kane style solutions.
For those with limited downloads, the text is all shown below. (minus the spelling errors I could fix)
