The more the merrier of course, since they add and the values are quite high in the unmodded game, so it can and does get lopsided quite quickly.

True, in most cases...but this newbie Pooka's fighting doesn't use shields, so I doubt they'd even use Combat Sensors he's got combat sensors I. Just found that out when I stole a dread with 'em and waxed two of his carriers.

Watch it..that might not mean newbie. I don't install sheilds on ships until I get up to Phased III or so. Too vulnerable to PPBs otherwise.

Re: Fight Dirty?
Well, any update on how the game's going? It would be nice to see if all our advice worked.

Re: Fight Dirty?
Or don't shower for a month before fighting, that should be dirty enough!
