Question, Armor and mines

Q · #1 August 22nd, 2002, 08:05 PM

Any more observations on this Geoschmo?
Especially the question if the damage ability can be seen and if ships avoid automatically the sector are very important points. Have you observed this??

I haven't tested that yet Q. I will let you know though.

Well, why not throw away damage altogether and have mines sap a stack's movement points or supplies? Or at least introduce mine-only components that do so, via high-level mine research. Said components could also (via suitable handwaving

) make the mine more/completely resistant to sweeping.

That would be very nice, but it would require new abilities/damage types that can only be introduced be MM. Therefore send your idea to them.
