Just use twice as many repair bays (which are not very expensive at all)

In resource cost, maybe, but an additional 150kt of Tonnage Space is significant.

That's 1 LC with 2 repair bays and engines, or even a destroyer with 1 repair bay and engines, just another support ship for the fleet.

Re: Repair aptitiude and Organic armor
Yeah, a few extra repair ships aren't hard to build or maintain.

Re: Repair aptitiude and Organic armor
Seemed to me like organic armor was completely repairing once out of combat, which would make sense. I don't remember ever seeing partly-destroyed organic armor at the strategic level.

Re: Repair aptitiude and Organic armor
PvK, OA does not repair after combat is over. Test it out. I have seen plenty of ships end up with some damaged OA, either by combat ending before they could repair, or when they run out of regen points.

Re: Repair aptitiude and Organic armor
Oh, that's weird. Never seen that, and I've played a few organic races lately in several games. Definitely seems nonsensical.

Re: Repair aptitiude and Organic armor
Organic Armor does get a chance to use its stored up regen points after the Last shot in combat is fired. If your ship is hit on the Last round, you still get to try and heal the armor.
That might be what your're seeing.
