Organic Armor

From PlanetsWiki

[edit] Overview

• Ships with organic armor start with a free full load of Armor.
• Damaged organic armor must be repaired (regrown) by using Med Units (1 Med per Armor unit).
• Maximum repair rate of 1/10 max Armor per turn.
• Organic armor is impervious to Small weapons; regardless if they are enhanced by ET or not. It also prevents the ship from being affected by the special abilities of small weapons.
• Large Weapons have an ArmorDrain of ((Weapon ArmorDrain / 5) + (Weapon Kill / 8)) (the exact drain (ODrain) for each large weapon can be found here).
• The Magnum Exotic Techs have no effect vs. organic armor.
• The Borlox Armor Exotic Tech will not grow organic armor.
• Large Weapons of a Darkwing G have an ArmorDrain of Weapon ArmorDrain / 2.
• The ship also loses only 1/5 the normal amount of crew and guests to Large Weapons hits from all but Privateer.
