Re: Soap bubbles?

> Strangely enough the move modernly is to thinly armoured warships.
Ships
with bulkheads thin enough to let missiles pass through without setting
off
the warheads are more survivable then those that have hard armour and
let
the missile explode.

The vacuum of space kinda precludes that design philosophy.  Also while
armor is gone (no amount of armor would stop a missile), systems are
designed with great survivability.  Reference a US warship that took a
major
blast, causing a large hole at the waterline recently.	Hurt badly but
not
sunk, being rebuilt now.

The wonderful thing about games is that no one dies at the end of the
day.
I'm very fortunate to game with folks that play to the spirit of the
rules
and not the letter.  A fun group.

If you ever get to Maryland/Virginia, USA, let me know. 3 excellent
clubs in
the region. Mine - AoCM, NOVAG and HAWKS.
