Ammunition Pack 03 - Lighters
This is the third ammunition prop pack in the series (so far) and it deals with ammunition carried in lighters. At the turn of the last century, ammunition could have been shipped into your naval base by one of two methods -- via the railroad, or by sea. Most German naval bases on the North Sea were surrounded by shallow water and could only be reached by dredged deep-water channels, so large cargo steamers were rarely used. And though the Imperial German Army had first call on rail priorities, the navy preferred to rely upon coastal shipping. Tugboats pulling lighters loaded with cargo were ideally suited to working the inshore shallows. “AP” has provided you with a variety of lighters loaded with ammunition and powder for the guns of the fleet.
How to use
This pack contains .SC4model-files and props as .SC4desc-files. So, by installing this pack nothing will directly appear in your game. You can use the props on your own lots or convert the SC4models into buildings, as you please. Since most props are to be used on water lots and props naturally align with the surface level, they will sink to the sea floor, if you do not stick to the guidelines on how to use props on water lots. Finally you will need to follow the instructions on how to make a lot transparent. You will find the props in any Lot-Editor under the prefix A_1P_h_
As per request from the community, I have also included a version of the ship without historic flags and crew.

You will see a wonderful display of the results of our long collaboration there and can get a preview of what might be hidden in the coming prop packs or simply get some inspiration for your own harbour!
