Just a heads up to the developers, the Bremen-class of light cruisers (1906) is set in the game as having 4 inches of conning tower armour, 0 inches of hull armour, 8 inches of belt armor (yes, 8!) and 4 inches of deck armour.

In reality, the Bremen-class had no belt armour at all. It had a respectable 3.1 inches of deck armour, but giving this light cruiser 8 inches of belt armour seems like it must be a mistake.

Also, what is "hull armour"? I know what belt, deck and conning tower armour. I don't really see hull armour mentioned in any of the literature about dreadnoughts. Can anyone explain?
