it is a naval base and you refer to it specifically in some dispatches, but there is no label for it on the map.

thanks.

Well-ell... imagine that... the name is attached to the dock that is on the eastern shore inside the bay... but it looks like the dock itself is missing also... hmmm - me thinks someone sneezed around there or somethin'...

Roughly 1/2 to 2/3 of the ships have the capability to shoot the flare, including some of the warships, which is mostly the CL-BB classes. However, to see the flare shoot, a certain part of the ship must take catastrophic damage, which would insinuate the ship will sink... which it doesn't always do... plus, on some of the ships, as soon as the torpedo hits, the flare goes up, which would insinuate that the officer of the watch was standing there with the gun pointed perfectly overhead as the torpedo approached and then impacted... which is what I do NOT like about them. However, again, they don't always sink after the flare goes up, so you do still have to hang around to see. The European Medium Freighter seems to be very good at that. Hit it with two torpedoes, and up goes the flare, but no matter how long you wait, you will have to either put a 3rd into it, or surface and duke it out with the deck gun, of which they have two...
