Can you instapop something, Hood-style?

Yup. Every penetrating hit to one of the magazines has a chance to cause a detonation. However, that chance can be modified or even negated by mounting certain flags or upgrades.

Even without a lucky detonation, BBs will often oneshot cruisers, if they insist to show their broadsides at close range. Russian cruisers from tier 4 upwards make for especially nice fireworks, as most of their hull seem to consist of magazines. Grinding through the Shchors is NOT fun...

Sure. Citadel penetration and/or detonation makes things go boom.

They have placed the Arizona back on sale....

I missed it when it was first released for sale, so I am definitely buying it this time. Probably my single favorite/nostalgic warship of all time.

Tried to accept this link too, but it doesn't seem to want to let me. Can links only be used once?

Someone asked when they should use HE versus AP.

On one hand, this is a pretty complex question that has answers very depenent on the particulars of the ship.

On the other hand, in a general sense, it is pretty simple at the most basic level, and at the most basic level, it goes like this:

When you are in a:

DD
HE against everything.

CA
HE against BBs
HE against DDs
AP against other CAs

BB
HE against DDs
AP against CAs
AP against BBs, unless the angle is head on or tail, then go with HE.
