Unless they've done it deliberately by mucking around with the plating (in which case, don't be a bore, WG - the upper belt is weakness enough). Overall armour scheme is somewhere between Dunkerque (main belt) and Hood (main deck/citadel deck plating). The interesting thing will be whether they've chose the Warspite or QE as the gunnery template (the former, I would hope, for a mid-tier Georgia style of play).

Pururut Players 356 posts 812 battles Report post #15 Posted May 16, 2021 That superstructure looks like an oversized HE magnet similar to that on Queen Elizabeth. Regardless of its accuracy with only 6 guns it doesnt look like it will up tier well unless Wargaming adds some decent deck armor to mitigate those 381 and 406mm shells.

It is unlikely she gets better plating that QE. But that is ok. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hope they will change that. Even Kongo has 19mm on Tier V as a BC. Amagi also has the standard bow playting and these are ships with a full gun layout. Repulse has already to sacrifice gunpower and belt armor for her speed. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hope it is like Hood in that while it is a large target it has good gun angles so can keep well angled, if they keep the 16mm plating that would essentially remove all it's tanking ability as angling would be fairly pointless... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
