Default Re: what do you think of the racial techs?

oops, I made a mistake in my older post. No amount of crystalline armour can fully protect against missiles. The reason is that missiles stack just like fighters do: when stack of 5 CSM-5 hits ship, it is treated as a single 5*120=600 hit, not as 5 separate hits of 120. Thus, even though 8 crystal armor III gives complete protection from any hit less than 150, stack of missiles can punch through. Sorry for my previous erroneous post.

Oleg.
