Possible experimental effects

Angled Plating

Custom angling of plates at critical points along the ship's hull make projectile strikes more likely to glance, reducing the impact of kinetic damage at the cost of structural integrity.

Kinetic resistance
+8%
Crafting cost
5︎ Compact Composites (36)
3︎ High Density Composites (32)
3︎ Zirconium (24)


Deep Plating

Increased depth of plating increases the ship's overall structural integrity, at the cost of resistance against all types of damage.
