Talk:Oscarsborg Fortress

Untitled
Lützow hat only two main battery turrets, so "using her remaining Bruno and Cesar turrets to bombard the defenders" is incorrect. --KjellG 18:44, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Yes, that's correct. Thanks for heads up. I'll fix it. --Manxruler 04:01, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Aron?
The guides at Oscarsborg are not able to point out 'Moses', how can Aron be known? I suggest that the text of the photo is changed to: 'One of the 28cm canons in the Main Battery at Kaholmen, Oscarsborg'. (Mind, there is also another 'main battery' in the Oscarsborg fortress, on the island Håøya.) KjellG (talk) 22:16, 7 September 2008 (UTC)


 * This is true. The exact identities of the 28 cm guns have been lost to history. A change in the image caption is indeed required. Please expand on what you mean by Oscarsborg having "another main battery". Manxruler (talk) 11:07, 8 September 2008 (UTC)


 * The fortifications on N and S Kaholmen is often denoted as Oscarsborg Fortress. More correctly Oscarsborg include land batteries on the Drøbak side: Heer, Kringerud, Seiersten, Veisving, Kopås and Husvik batteries, Badeparken seachlight, positions at Hallangen and Bergholmen for the mines, Nesset batteries in the west, Stjernås range station +++, and even a battery in the Drammen fjord, AND fortifications on the island Håøya with the 'Top-battery', the 'main battery (Håøya)', and the 'Howitzer battery'. I hope I will be able to make a full map of Oscarsborg fortress. KjellG (talk) 12:59, 8 September 2008 (UTC)


 * A map would be very nice, remember to quote the sources you use when creating it. I'll look into the battery set-up later today. If I find a good map online or elsewhere I'll drop a line here so you can find inspiration for your map. Manxruler (talk) 10:04, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
