Re: Damage type question
Tested the Death Ray device. It doesn't work with an ability of "0' so I tested it with "1" and it worked fine. Skips armor, but hits shields.
How many "marines" does 1 point of Boarding Defense give? I could just bump up boarding parties by a few points to compensate. I intend to have Bridge, Crew Quarters, Boarding Paries, and Auxiliary Bridges have the ability. That way the Death Ray (I have to think of a better name) kills all the lifeforms on the ship. I'd thought about adding it cargo bays, too, to simulate slaughtering passengers, but it would also destroy sats, mines, etc, so I won't.
I suppose I could also leave Boarding Parties alone. They would get a minor boost to Boarding Defense, and I doubt having 3 extra points of Boarding Defense on their victim is going to change much.
Of course, this lead me to think of Shielded Bridge, Crew, etc. that doesn't have that ability (is immune to Death Ray) and possibly generates shields or something. And a Huge Death Ray for bLasting planets (Population Only).
