First of all, let me say I'm enjoying reading these Posts. Good analytical work; I hope modders & MM are paying attention. I have yet to make time for modding my own AI, but I'm certainly taking your comments to heart!

Probably. ISTR a discussion about using armor for boarding party ships, at least until shield regenerators are available. Mainly because using the boarding parties drops YOUR shields, leaving an unarmored ship rather vulnerable. Once regenerators are available, of course, the shields will come back after a boarding action (at whatever rate the regenerators can handle), so shields become a bit more useful again.
