Hey, guys, for the new players out there, here is a quick and easy guide on what a citadel is and where to aim to get those lovely citadel hits!

I do want to point out that only 8 inch and larger shell magazines count as citadel spaces. Cleveland and Omaha are very bad examples for this reason. You won't get citadel hits for nailing them under the turrets like you would vs an 8 inch cruiser or a battleship.

 

Cleveland in particular also has that minuscule split citadel, and is further a bad example. I would've done the demonstration with Furutaka or a battleship, as they have larger examples.

Nice video, knowing where to aim is half the success. The rest is however luck and internal game calculations.

I swear they increased the size of the Clevelands citadel last patch or I am getting lucky or just better at aiming. Before I would rarely find the citadel of a Cleveland, now I am regularly hitting them. They are still harder to hit than most other cruisers, but I find them to be hittable now.
