Default Re: emmisive armor on units

Following test situation in the combat simulator Version 1.78:
One single fighter with 1 small emissive armor (that should reflect 3 points of damage) and a total damage resistance of 36 kT attacked by another fighter with small DUC I (5kT damage per shot). Hit probability 99%, no shields involved.
Result: it takes 8 shots to destroy the fighter.
Conclusion: emissive armor ability seems not to work on fighters.

A similar test with a satellite as target showed again no emissive effect.
