so i can see that a diamond shot punches thru obsidian, if i made the armor multiple blocks thick would that reduce the penetration at all.

Some do, but I don’t think I’ve witnessed it more than a few times in my 3.5 years of being here. Stick with a single layer, saves you obsidian, time, money, and allows more blocks to beautify your ship

to my knowledge there is a limit to the amount of obsidian allowed on a ship. cant recall exactly what that limit is, I know its a percentage of blocks on the ship per ship type. the only people who would shoot diamonds at an obsidian clad ship are also the people who would just rather chase after your ship in a vanilla boat and either /top and slaughter you, or climb aboard the old fashioned way and slaughter you.

If I had a nickel for every time I, Ooo hey, a butterfly!! *runs off chasing the butterfly*

I know the EA did a whole sort of experiment and prototyping on ship armour.

So I’d talk to inventor john and also spectate the ship battles and make friends with their owners for them to tell you about their ship.
