I thought that organic armour only worked when you were in combat.
I seem to recall back in my organic days that if you went through one of those damaging warp points the armour didn't repair itself until you actually entered combat.

I used that in Deathstalker's Game on PBW; just add a repair bay and enough OA to have one piece left on the other side in case there's a welcoming committee.

That's a change I'd like to see in a patch or SE V: variable damage from unstable warp points and storms, so you don't know exactly how much armor you'll need to get through.

Well, I did a test and the ship got itself killed after detonating about 8 mines. Looks like organic armour doesn't regenerate after taking a mine hit.
