Relative composite hull strength: 1.00

Good speed and armament. You may want to swap some belt armor for some deck armor though. This is the age of long-range, plunging shellfire.

duly noted!

There´s no chance to rate her against other designs (historical or WesWorld) as long as she doesn´t feature a torpedo bulkhead of reasonable thickness.

So long,

HoOmAn

For a time I had the same thought - skip the TDS, counting on the better compartmentalization to offset it. Although it did result in an over-all less impressive design, it seemed unlikely that the designers would skip it - particularly when some of you guys are already shipping Long Lance variants.

I'll back Hooman on the deck armor issue. I think what you have is plenty, especially when one has to assume that it's thicker over the vital spaces and thinner over the rest.

Makes me wonder if I should have another look at Akbar's deck protection...

.....For that extra "I'm still here!" factor!!!!!

Looks good to me, apart from that "10.0 torps to sink" bit. Can you adjust the stability away from 1.0, to see what happens?

It drops to about 6!
but the stability goes to pot!

I'd actually manually edit that, after all we are dealing with a bug.

Done.....see above!!
