Yup. Step (2) has the problem of being extraordinarily difficult to calculate, esp. for a newbie. It's probably best to simply advise players to always research armor up to 6, and to always put def. armors on all attack ships.

Also, I think I'm reversing my reversal, and going back to thinking the formula SJ gives is wrong. Death to SJ! Down with the formula!
