Armor vs Shields
Which do you develope first?
Against Humans?
Against AI?
Against Humans I will develope Armor only as a rapid way to Stealth Armor.
Against the AI I will always go for Armor because I know I can capture ships with Shields.
One Light Carrier with Shields will give me a huge amount of Tech.
Hmmm, I always develop armour first. The reason is simple: both humans and TDM AI races (medium+ bonus) have PPB at turn 30 or even before. Corresponding phase shields need much more research investment.
