Re: Emissive armor?
Someone correct me if I'm wrong cause if I am missing something I'd like to know.
My guess is that emissive armor was intended as a protection against low tech races and small weapon types carried on fighters. Good idea! The only problem is that most ship weapons can overcome the emissive armor's protection and do FULL damage. A group of fighters fires as one big weapon (all the damage is added together then applied) making the armor once again useless. If each fighter fired individually then only fighters with 20+ (or whatever the bonus to emissive armor is) would do damage.
