Re: P&N Bucky Tube Gel Armor
I need to come up with a good policy on BTG...
If I have a maximum BTG on ships, with BTGs beyond that costing 1kt, it would be worse than Armor 1's.
For ships, I think I'll allow the below-max BTG to cost a small negative in minerals, since its replacing metallic bulkheads.
Beyond the limit (at which point your ship would be mostly composed of BTG), BTGs will cost more.
BTG for Sats and Platforms seems fine to me, and can be allowed to stand as unlimited.
Troops and fighters, and probably drones, will not get regular BTG. Instead, I'll make it an upgrade component for something else, or a maybe a mount for major structural items (Cockpit, lifesupport, engines, etc). It would add some structural points, and slightly reduced mass if possible without going to zero mass.
Are those usages/effects too different, or does what I'm saying make some sense?
