So, when it comes to units, crystaline and organic armor special abilities an non-functional. No regenerative organic armor, no crystalline armor boost to shields are present. Is that what you are saying?
Organic armor regeneration requires the component to be destroyed before it regenerates, so units can't make use of that.
Crystalline armor IS sometimes effective, though. Sats/fighters's crystalline armor stacks within the group of units, too.
Unfortunately, as of the 1.41 -> 1.49 patch, sats are screwed up, and their shields are actually "armor". IE shield depleters have no effect, and the shields do not weaken. Crys ability does not seem to be useful on sats anymore. Same with fighters 
.
EDIT: Well, even with a planetary shield, SE4 v1.49 fails to use the crystalline armor.
Time to bug Aaron for these abilities on units, eh?
