So have been looking at DBF more lately and thinking about russians, saw the Borodino Battleship and looked it up to learn more, I am not a real big history buff but know enough to get into trouble . Now according to the internet, what is called the Borodino BB is a BC from what I can find online.... So my question would be is is supposed to be a BB or a BC? 6+ or 7+? Makes a difference with 14(modified) armor. Now another thing, I have been looking at some of the ACs as well, and maybe it is just my hoping that some ships, ok mostly russians again, would be just slightly better then their LC/PCs. But even looking at other countries, a bunch of the ACs are close in armor values, as german and british, yet the AVs of the ships vary greatly. ANy reason for this? Again in looking up the ships this seem close and some of the ships have similar thicknesses. I know some older armors were as good as KC, but some of the ships have KC, or at least some, yet seem to be a lot lower. Third, I have a buddy who is looking at going with japan. Did I miss where aircraft rules were for their aircraft carriers? I thought I double checked and triple checked, but still can't seem to spot them.

I have a guy doing reviews of the armor values for the card tool. You can expect that when it comes out the values will be corrected an accurate.
Aircraft were not included in Clash of Dreadnoughts because of the virtually non-existant role they had in naval warfare at the time. Planes hadn't really come into their own until WW2.
Borodino was definitely a BB. Never heard of somebody considering it a BC.

OK, thank you for getting some reviewing done. Figured I would ask about the carries, thought it odd as most of what was said was they weren't really part of WW1.
On the Borodino, I just thought it weird. When I first looked it up on the I got the Borodino BB (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borodino-class_battleship) and was kind of struck funny as I was looking for the 14" guns. I noticed the Slava was a Borodino BB, and noticed that the Slava is the name for its class in the DBF pdf. Then I did a goodle search and the BC wiki(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borodino-class_battlecruiser) was just under the BB wiki. Figured I would just to clear things up. Looks like I will be looking for a different ship :\.
