"Not having this is asking for trouble, as 1 Ionic Disperser shot completeley disables your ship (assuming shields are down, ofc)."

Actually enough IDs to kill ALL your engines will disable your ship..not one shot. One shot will do it if the ID is large enough (heavy mount or greater) OTOH, a low-tech ID with no mount, say on a Destroyer early game, will do nothing. If it can't kill at least one engine per shot, nothing happens.

Either way, IDs are still a big threat. And using the first couple levels of IDs is just asking to be killed anyways.

Thanks Imperator. You reminded me that shields on fighters are hit points also...
