Damage Calculation

[Suicide Junkie]

The experience bonuses do not depend on tech level. Only the acutal experience a ship has.

They can be trained for "free" experience, but it takes time to complete, and they can also get up to 50% experience through battle.

SJ, it is a good point, I'll include it in the list a bit later...

What do you mean by 'trained for "free" experience'? Do you mean the training from the Ship Training Facility?

Does anyon know for sure what a fighter's defence bonus is?

I'd like to include it with the small ships and drones defensive bonuses.

[Krsqk]

As far as determining actual damage, Death Shrines add a 5/10/15% bonus to actual damage amount for weapons fired in that system. IIRC, that is.

[Krsqk]

Fighters have a 50% offense bonus and a 60/70/80% defense bonus for large/medium/small hulls, respectively.
