hmmm here's what i wanna say:
12' deck qv is a GB farmar and i dont think there's any argument for that. it might not be very good for bb6 line battles in HA, however it still has it's use. beside, i grab a nebby/kaiser myself for bb6 battles.
12' bounce SY at 44 degree, but i didnt run a test with L2 yet since in the battle there's yet a L2 can do dmg with HE even in max range. many time i just fictory rushed some not-so-good L2 driver. i dont think L2's shell has better aomour penatration than SY's shell at 44 degree.
12' does do better than normal aw qv with 10.6' or 11' with lighter crew in many situations. there r many ships would like to rush bb6 in gb and oftenly the qv is getting rushed by mutiple bbs at same time. 12' can even ignor some low caliber gun's ap or the ap does almost to nothing dmg.
12' doesnt not bounce amagi/nebby shell at max range for sure. however the nebby dmg has significant decreased and it start to bounce or do around 5k dmg per savo at 37-35 degrees, at this range is when qv getting in his range when rushing.
there are never a perfect battle when a ship is outranged by some other ship and can never get into his own range, if that always happen then kaiser is too OP. so there r always bb5s get into their range when facing a bb6. and when the bb5s can fire at the qv, the armour gives more chance to survive even when bb5's r using ap. qv can just simple counter a little and let the ap do less dmg. ap starts to do a lot less dmg due to lower angle is very significant on a 12'qv.
