Research links mines, screens, and fire control

Two campaign research checks connect electromagnetic minesweeping, upgraded mines, formation control, rangefinding, and radar development.

Notes

The campaign research tree includes boiler efficiency, electromagnetic minesweeping, upgraded mines, maneuver warfare, screen tracks, screen formations, and rangefinders. The listed 1928 date for electromagnetic minesweeping is questioned, with a tentative recollection that it should be earlier. The hoped-for rangefinder research leads toward radar. A later review returns to mines and formation-control research before seeking the radar upgrade again. These are game research choices, and the chronology question remains unresolved.
