Hi.
Enjoying the game a lot! However, I've a couple of questions.
Ship armour - we get to see the thickness of the armour but not what type of armour it is as far as I can see. Is there any way to see this in game? If not, it might be a good addition.
Gun penetration - What sort of armour are the figures based on?

The penetration value are based on the armour of your current technology level. - (So will not be necessarily the same as enemy ships)
The armour in this game is not sorted by specific type, rather, armour effectiveness of a ship is determined by the level of armor technology when it was laid down. (E.g, it is not simply Krupp Armor vs. Harvey Armor, but rather something like Krupp Armor with Qualitly Control level 1 and Face Hardening tech vs some 1930 armor with like 15 armor tech researched) Which unfortunately cannot be checked outside of going into the savefile of the game.

Thanks. That helps somewhat, explains why the penetration figures go down on the older ships over time.
Pity the ship design/info for your own ships can't say something general such as "early krupps armour" or similar though to give you an idea how ineffective it's going to be.
