The tier 10 United States Navy battleship Montana’s armor much like the tier 10 Japanese battle Yamato has excellent armor protection. Both ships are comparable as far as armor values go but the Montana falls short primarily to the Yamato being able to overmatch its bow/stern armor(due to the Yamato’s larger caliber guns) and thus is able to penetrate the Montana easily. Looking past that advantage the Montana’s armor is solid where it needs to be to protect its citadel areas. It is not without its downsides however with two main turret barbettes being a weak spot and the citadel in general being very large. This World of Warships Montana armor guide will break down the Montana’s armor over three different views and provide effective armor values. http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/armor-guide-montana/ Going into making this armor guide for the Montana I knew its armor has issues against the Yamato as far as overmatching goes. What I didn't expect was the #2 and #3 main turret weak spots under the barbettes that carriers over from the Iowa. I was also surprised to see that the Montana's deck armor is worse than the Iowa and also vastly inferior to the Yamato's by a significant margin. What are everyone's thoughts on the Montana's armor scheme?

Added a new armor guide for the tier 10 USN battleship Montana. Enjoy! http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/armor-guide-montana/

First let me introduce myself, if you are familiar with World of Tanks you may recognize the username since I run a fan site focused on helping both new and veteran players called WoTGuru. I also release gameplay videos that are unedited and raw to give a true sense of playing the game instead of cutting out the "unimportant" parts and just showing the blockbuster moments over on YouTube. Anyway.... I started up a website focusing on World of Warships and have several guides up that some might find useful. I am hoping that over time I will be able to fine tune the armor guides and other guides to reflect the detailed guides I create for World of Tanks. Since WoWS is still in its infancy it is difficult to acquire some of the finer details required to decipher the information found in the WoT guides. Either way! Check out my website Menz Gaming and I hope you find something there to help you out. http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/ Armor Guides Arkansas Beta: http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/armor-guide-arkansas-beta/ Atago: http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/armor-guide-atago/ Bogue: http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/armor-guide-bogue/ Colorado: http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/armor-guide-colorado/ Farragut: http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/armor-guide-farragut/ Fuso: http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/armor-guide-fuso/ Independence: http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/armor-guide-independence/ Iowa: http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/armor-guide-iowa/ Izumo: http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/armor-guide-izumo/ Kawachi: http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/armor-guide-kawachi/ Kongo: http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/armor-guide-kongo/ Mahan: http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/armor-guide-mahan/ Mikasa: http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/armor-guide-mikasa/ Montana: http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/armor-guide-montana/ Nagato: http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/armor-guide-nagato/ North Carolina: http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/armor-guide-north-carolina/ New Mexico: http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/armor-guide-new-mexico/ St. Louis:http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/armor-guide-st-louis/ Tirpitz: http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/armor-guide-tirpitz/# Warspite: http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/armor-guide-warspite/ Yamato: http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/armor-guide-yamato/ Yubari: http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/armor-guide-yubari/ Map Strategy: Fault Line: http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/map-strategy-fault-line/ World of Warships Captain Skill Guide http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/world-of-warships-articles-guides/world-of-warships-captain-skills-guide/ World of Warships Do's and Don'ts http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/world-of-warships-articles-guides/world-of-warships-dos-and-donts/ New Player Guide http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/world-of-warships-articles-guides/world-of-warships-new-player-guide/ WoWS Terminology http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/world-of-warships-articles-guides/world-of-warships-terminology/ Which Warships Line if Right for You? http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/world-of-warships-articles-guides/which-warship-line-is-right-for-you/ How to Aim in World of Warships http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/world-of-warships-articles-guides/world-of-warships-how-to-aim/ How to Dodge Torpedoes and World of Warships http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/world-of-warships-articles-guides/world-of-warships-dodging-torpedoes/

New post on the changes for captain skills coming in 0.5.3. http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/world-of-warships-0-5-3-captain-skill-changes/

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll make sure to expand upon what you brought up when I update the guide to make it a bit more in-depth. Unfortunately I don't have any old clients and I also play on the NA server. Also, added a new armor guide for the tier 6 USN carrier Independence. http://menzgaming.com/worldofwarships/armor-guide-independence/
