Re: Small Shield Depleters = Uber Troop Weapon
I tested the shield depleter in the combat simulator against weapon platforms (Version 1.84): There seems to be no effect.

Re: Small Shield Depleters = Uber Troop Weapon
Same test situation against fighters: shield depleters seem to work.

Yep, SD works against fighters. Even if the fighters don't have shields...

Re: Small Shield Depleters = Uber Troop Weapon
I wonder if it is possible to make these special damage type weapons work correctely with units. The way SE IV treats units in damage calculation makes me believe this will be very difficult.
My personal solution to the problem: I allow these weapons only target ships and bases.

Yeah, but that isn't such a big deal. Unless you have the Talisman, the SD doesn't have much chance of hitting the Fighters. |

Er... why not? I have no particular problem hitting fighters with any DF weapon. Sure PD hits more often, but DF hits satisfactorily.
