[Ragnarok-X]

Oh well. Actually the point is that im participating in the Last and only babylon 5 pbw game, which is played by 7 players. I have yet to see a ship using the armor system either to effect or in a way described by SJ and Fyron. People simply do not REALIZE how it should work, even if i see your point.
Right now all ships i have seen just use 1kT component to fill the ships space (i.e. you have 8kT space left, so you pack 8x1kT armors), 3kT and 7kT are not used at all.
In addition people pack one "main" armor each of damage-reducing armor, thats about it.


About your
"Light armor only will also mean the shadow battlecrabs get crippled by the E.A. way too easy. "
Well, simple as it is, Shadows and first ones in general will of course get special armors which have a high damage-reduction-ability.
Since all of the armors dont have the "armor" ability, they will not destroyed first. Due to the massive size-resistance relation, they will most probably be destroyed at Last. Since they will Last that long, the damage reduction will be provided until the end, so even more damage resistance through light/normal/heavy armor is not even needed, it will already take quite long to just destroy one ship, given average armor vs average weapon, where the damage decreasement will be about 25% (or whatever).


I would so like to hear more opinions on this, apart from SJ, Fyron, Timstone and me. People who actually played the mod.
