Looks pretty good except the hull strength needs to be 1.00 to go with the turrets...

This is a little bullet  ???

Golden horde is over there,  maybe it's defense against their aircraft

The second one has ~900 tons more guns than the first.
I bet that 4m high 100mm upper belt weighs about that.

Which brings me to a question : 
Is that upper belt supposed to capped by an armored deck?
You have the decks set to single layer.
Which would allow shells and splinters striking above the upper belt
to damage things behind it.

In part, it is also the higher freeboard.

Which brings me to a question :
Is that upper belt supposed to capped by an armored deck?
You have the decks set to single layer.
Which would allow shells and splinters striking above the upper belt
to damage things behind it.

That upper belt is supposed to capped by a light armored deck (25% of the Armored Deck => 30mm).
You have the decks set to single layer.
Which would allow shells and splinters striking above the upper belt
to damage things behind it. yes
