On the other other hand, damaged ships might not have the stamina or
structural integrity to continue on to whatever mission is needed.
Intact
ships might be better suited for a high-grav mission approach or be able
to
transit a nebula on the way to the FTL envelope.
A few intact ships might be more valuable than a larger number of
damaged a
long way from home. Simple pts obviously don't give a full explanation
of
what's important. Other other other hand, trying to quantify that for
beta-testing is mind-numbing a prospect.
