Default Re: Honor Harrington Mod Discussion

1. Currently sidewalls work like so:
They generate, say, 200 shield. (Capital ships use Phased shields)
They RE generate equal to half their initial level (so, 100)

The drive components have crystaline shield ability. Bigger the drive, the higher the effect, and it's big effect. So when your shields are breached, they'll be restored.. IF the shot didn't damage an engine component. If it did, you are in serious trouble.

2. Drone warheads are direct-fire weapons that fire from 4-5 spaces out (laser heads) to 1 space (contact nuke). They don't skip shields.

3. Most any weapon can be made to skip shields by using a special varient component. This simulates a shot down the open throat of the ship's wedge. The problem is these components have a nasty negative to-hit.
