Armor

Originally quoted from EVO:
**Kelmaon is the Emalgha's first and only interstellar colony. During the Voinian occupation Emalghia was all but stripped of ore by the resource-hungry conquerors, and after their rebellion the Emalgha had to seek new sources of metal, while making maximum use of alternatives. The dangerous mines of Kelmaon are not the richest, but they are the Emalgha's best, indeed their only, source of good metals.

First of all, that doesn't prove it's wood, second of all, that proves it's not wood. πŸ™‚ Thanks 'ambassador.

Just to note, Emalgha ships have the second greatest armour % in EVO, second to Voinians, so...wooden armour? πŸ˜‰

Yeap, you're right! I just pulled up the Emalgha target graphic in ResEdit, and the text says "wooden hull." Question answered.

We know the ships are made of wood, but that doesn't mean there isn't armour on top of the wood.

Man, i thought everyone knew that the Emalgha ships were Wooden Hulled vessels reinforced with an armor exo-skeleton, can everybody agree to that?

Of course... That's why they have ships with strips of metal holding it together.

Just an Q: Is I the only one that has been attacked by an azdara called Violent Cloudburst?

HeΒ΄s really annoying, shield generator that brings it back to 100% as fast as u stop firing at him. I used an destroyer with 3 phase turrets and 24 rockets,
who does u think won? He! Well there was an crescent warship that attacked me too but who cares πŸ™‚

I was testing a UE Cruiser when I fought that one. Turned speed down to 50%, and opened fire. Oh, yeah, and tractor.
