Default Re: Armor, Shields and Damage (FAQ)

First of all, I agree that emissive armor should not stack. Just too easy to make invulnerable ships that way.

Instead of an All-or-nothing approach, subtract 10 points from the weapon damage whenever an Emissive component (with 10 ability points) is hit.
With that, damage is reduced for any weapon hit.
Emissive armor will then stack, but only if a second Emissive armor component is hit on the same shot (and the first armor was destroyed).



Sorry, but I don't agree, S_J. Reducing damage is not what emissive should do. This is already done (Well, very close) with the crystal armor that loads your shields and thus reduces the effect of the next shot.
