This arrangement should apply to the King George V, Monarch, and Lion. I've provided a primary source drawing on the KGV boiler room section below.Īs a result, the KGV citadel height should really look something like this. EDIT: Garzke and Dulin 28" draft line in their diagram is too high and incorrect. The turbine/engine rooms sits a bit lower than the boiler rooms, just below waterline level, but still higher than the magazines. In fact, the boiler room height is one deck higher than the engine rooms, and poke above the waterline. The engine and especially boiler rooms sit taller than the magazines. Here is reproduction of a picture of the King George V's boiler room (frame 200) from National Maritime Museum. Here is the current in-game KGV citadel, with the citadel roof all sitting at one level. While it is true that the ship's powder magazines and shell rooms are located quite deep and a fair bit below the waterline, the same can't be said for the machinery spaces. Simply put, the citadel height of the King George V is currently modeled wrong, as shown below.
