Been thinking about this for a while after I saw the the changes to Cruiser plating and IFHE. Namely I am curious about the following, consider it a bit of theorycrafting that I found interesting.
Now, Mogami as most know is viable both with the stock 155mm and the 203mm main battery. So I'm wondering what will happen.
Will Mogami retain 25mm extremities since it's "top" upgrade is over 200mm caliber?
Will she get 16mm extremities since 155mm is pretty popular?
Will her armor scheme change depending on which caliber guns you outfit her with?
Will she maybe split as a CL and CA version, with each ship having a main battery of only one caliber?
Am quite interested in seeing how this turns out, especially since Mogami is the only case of a cruiser where this unique situation occurs.
In a sense Mogami is a Schrodingers cat, being a Light and Heavy cruiser at the same time.
