Default Re: thinking: OA vs CA

Well, without the pre-regeneration the OA regen rates seem a little low don't they? Level 3 only gets you 30 points of regeneration... that's only 1/3 to 1/4 of the damage put out by a decent weapon at about the same level (in terms of research points cost to acheive the level that is). At least with the pre-regeneration, while whacky conceptually, you could gain a slight edge by engaging late by building slower ships.
I'd just put on more shields now and forget about wasting my research points on both shields and (relatively useless) organic armor.

just my thoughts
