Default Re: basic questions on armors

Some of these responses are a little confusing, so...

Your ship can recieve the defense bonus from 1 ECM component, 1 Stealth Armor component, and 1 Scattering Armor component. These all stack. So at best, you get +60 +15 +15 = +90 defense bonus from them. 2 ECMs do not stack. 2 Stealth Armors do not stack their ECM defense bonus. 2 Scattering Armors do not stack their ECM defense bonus. Placing more than 1 of any of these components on a ship is generally not good to do because ships tend to be destroyed in a single salvo anyways. They rarely Last long after the shields are down. The Armors are expensive and relatively large, so using extras takes away a lot of space from weaponry.
