Default Re: Organic Armor: Is it broken ?

I did some testing in the simulator and it looks like the current description of organic armor is outdated. I only tested organic armor III though. I found that it will not regenerate at all unless it is destroyed. But once destroyed it will be completely restored to 150kT on the next turn if you have another non destroyed organic armor component. I am assuming I and II work the same way. This is fine. But, the manual should be updated if this is how the organic is intended to work.

In the simulator the regeneration was extremely effective against slowly reloading weapons like the wave motion gun. It would be impossible for a ship with enough organic armor to withstand one hit from a WMG(wave motion gun) ship to lose in one on one combat. Of course against multiple ships they will combine fire and destroy all the armor before it has a chance to regenerate.
