Now I understand. The air shaft under Ark Royal's bed leads to the German ships' room.

That's why she appears there.

The British are quite efficient, no? Why is the queen hiding a L85 on top of her bed though?

OK, who is paying for all of this? The Naval Base? Their respective countries? The Official Kanmusu Patreon?!! :P

That's a small kitchen in the French room considering that Richie and Teste are good cookers

Well, Ido did make a Warspite fairy into an MI6 agent... this jus' confirms that Warspite is indeed an agent.

Now I want to see the Japanese spy room.

that's just a secondary kitchen for when they want to make something quick and don't want to walk to the bases kitchen

Wartime budgets.

...Could an English native speaker give me the common definition of "canteen", meaning a locale/location? Because I doublechecked, and I'm pretty sure I had the correct word before, but I don't want to editwar notes.

"Canteen" in English is a place to prepare/eat food, primarily used in camps, military or otherwise, and places of business. There is another definition for a storage object, but that's another story. For this picture, "cantina" is Italian for (among other things) a wine cellar.

Should we tag "James Bond" because of the golden gun in the British spy room?

My main question is how the hell they got the bus up onto that Balcony...

Oh god I found Teste's z u i u n.

I spy Majora's Mask.

What is the thing to the left of the door to the British room? It has a base, a red vertical shaft, and an odd looking device on top. It is next to a crate of green balls or possibly fruit.

In the Gaming Bus, there appears to be a venerable NES next the Xbox. If so, props to Ido for knowing about our beloved grey box, vis-a-vis the Famicom

The word "cantina" has long been assimilated into English; I would say it needs no translation. While it is true that the Italian meaning is more specific and cultured (wine cellar vs. any drinking establishment), the distinction is not particularly important here. And in any case, the meaning of "canteen" is further afield.

Yeah, my point is that "canteen" would be incorrect here; that coat of arms on the wall is the template for a brand name, like what you'd find on the front sticker of a wine bottle. Granted, it's a fiction when wineries producing industrial amounts of drink pretend to still age the stuff in a cellar; but it's a fiction that's still ongoing today.

Thus, I'd say that "cellar" would be correct here - or nothing at all, as Arcana55 kindly let me know.

Prize money. It's how all the legendary British sailors made their fortunes.

(Mind you, I have no idea how much a captured Re-class is worth to an Admiralty prize court, although I will say that I personally would be willing to pay as much as $30,000 for one if appropriate financing could be arranged.)
