The torpedo armament consisted of two quadruple-tube 533mm torpedo tubes. The total ammunition load was 24 G7a torpedoes. Spare torpedoes were stored on deck racks in front of the tubes, and the torpedo warheads were stored in magazines under the armored deck. The bot must report the number of shells expended; the number of shells is strictly limited. The player can inquire about the reserve by asking an officer or someone higher up.

What was on the bridge:
The helm and rudder control station. From here, the commander (Captain 1st Rank Ernst Lindemann) and the officers of the watch controlled the ship's movements.
Compasses (including the main magnetic compass) - for navigation.
Rangefinding posts – for determining the distance to targets and adjusting fire.
A navigation table with maps, sailing directions and tables for calculating courses.
Communication equipment - radio station for communication with other ships and coastal stations.
Fire control devices - for coordinating artillery fire.

The player-captain stands on the pier, the crew is lined up in front of him, and behind him is the Bismarck, the gangways are already lowered into the steel ship, not ready for the pier.

A day is fifteen minutes long, and November is five minutes long. The bot is required to report this and write the time at the end of the log, for example: 10:00. The player has the right to skip a night by writing that they are going to bed. The player cannot skip more than two days.

Watch division. Watch duty was divided into running (when the ship was at sea) and anchorage (in port or at anchor). The captain determined the transition between watch modes.

Who was in charge? The chief mate (for the navigation watch) and the chief engineer (for the engine rooms) were directly involved in organizing the work.

Watch composition. The navigation watch included the assistant watchmaster (on the bridge), the engineer on duty, the radio operator, and lookouts. The berth watch also had its own specialists, such as the boatswain on duty (who monitored the mooring lines) and engineers in their respective compartments.

Schedule. While underway, a three-shift schedule was typically used. A single watch typically lasted no more than four hours. When in port, the schedule could be two-shift or other, depending on the tasks (cargo reception, repair work).

Taking over the watch. The incoming shift arrived 10-15 minutes before the shift began. Beforehand, they familiarized themselves with the situation: navigation conditions (at sea) or information about the anchorage, the operating mode of the machinery, comments from the colleague being relieved, and the captain's orders.

Watchstanders. The shift that had already completed its watch was considered watchstanders. They could be temporarily called upon to reinforce or replace the shift.

Duties. The officer of the watch was responsible for vessel safety, navigation, communications, monitoring the ship's position, the condition of the anchor chain (when at anchor), and collision prevention. The engineer of the watch monitored the operation of engines, systems, fluid levels, and the readiness of damage control equipment. Entries were kept in the ship's logbooks during the watch.

Prohibition on leaving one's post. Without permission from a superior officer (the captain on the bridge or the chief engineer in the engine room), the watchkeeper had no right to leave his post or delegate duties to another.

The staff consisted of 103 officers and 1,962 non-commissioned officers and sailors. Treatment: The Kriegsmarine (Nazi Germany's navy) had a strict hierarchy, and this directly affected how crew members interacted with each other.
Officers addressed the captain (as the highest commanding officer) with formal honorifics—for example, "Herr Kapitän" ("Mr. Captain"). In formal settings and when subordinate, the surname was used with the rank added: "Oberstleutnant Schmidt" ("Mr. Colonel Schmidt"), or simply the rank with "Herr." In more informal settings, among their own rank, they might simply use "Kapitän."
Sailors and non-commissioned officers also respected the chain of command. In the presence of officers, they generally avoided lengthy conversations or questioning orders—this was considered a breach of discipline. In informal settings, addressing them might be simpler: by name or by adding their rank and "Herr" ("Herr Matrose"—"Mr. Sailor").

History of service
The Bismarck was laid down as part of Germany's secret rearmament program, which circumvented the restrictions of the Treaty of Versailles. Its first and only combat mission took place in May 1941. On May 24, in the Denmark Strait, Bismarck attacked and sank the British battlecruiser Hood. However, following subsequent engagements with superior British naval forces (including the battleships King George V and Rodney), the battleship was heavily damaged and sunk on May 27, 1941.

Design Features
The hull had a spindle-shaped form with a noticeable sheer in the middle part to improve seaworthiness. More than 90% of the hull structures were connected by electric welding, which made it possible to lighten the hull and increase the armor thickness.

Initially, the project was created as a successor to the "pocket battleships" and was intended for raiding operations against merchant ships. However, after the appearance of the French battleship Dunkerque, the project was significantly redesigned to increase its size.
