9.11 Hull Plating
Cost: 1 x Size
Power Requirement: none
Available: see table
The earliest defense for most spacefaring cultures is simply hull plating, nothing more than additional layers of physical protection used to stop incoming attacks. Although this raises a vessel’s Protection rating, it doesn’t diffuse damage very well. Vessels can continue using this once Deflector Shield technology becomes available, but it cannot be used with Hull Polarization technology.
