Re: Ablative Armor
Not quite, as I said, ablative armor *destroys itself* to reduce or prevent damage to it's vehicle. That is not the same as a regular armor plate that takes damage until it is destroyed. It is not possible to model true ablative armor in SE4. Also, and this is just my opinion, I do not see emissive armor as a magic armor that negates damage. It is simply an advanced armor that requires a lot of damage to overcome, in the same manner that it's nearly impossible to damage a main battle tank with small-arms. However we don't consider tank armor to be magic armor that shrugs off damage even though, with weak weapons, that's exactly what it does.
