Doing a few tests today with armoring several ships (and messing around in them) I noticed the IM's shells seem to ignore armor entirely.
Testing at 11" deck armour, the ships would bounce 16" shells, and occasionally 18" (depending on angle of course)
However the IM with it's 12" shells would not be bounced at all, dealing full damage to the ship at seemingly any angle above 30.
I will be testing this fully tonight, but does anyone at the moment know why this is, and if there is any data to explain it?
