I run as much deck as I can afford, then tack the rest onto belt. Right now I'm at 6.1 deck, i
can fit 7"

Another question, should I lose the front two AA guns, so I have more room for armor?

~1" belt (lessens high-angle belt hits and criticals), all rest deck.... bulkhead only for
speed setups, like spartiate's

Seems good l231.
Since I bought Nelson I can no longer afford 6" deck, so I have been experimenting.

I am trying no armour at all, for a 29/42 knot speed. Using RP12 and rangewhoring
like this, I can be difficult to catch.
First game like this made 7.4k exp, more than I ever made before.
Only really works when you are not outranged by too many ships. If the room is KM-
heavy you may have problems.
I just put a little bulkhead on, but not enough to reduce my speed.

bulk is short for bulkhead, bulge is the anti-torp armor...

take off wat ever bulk you have and put it on your bulk head you dont need bulk
because its for torps, bulk head will decrease the chances of sailors dyingother then
that everything sounds good
