Radiation

[Rikki Tikki Traveller]

Page 77 states that the armour of a spaceship decreases rediation exposure of those inside by 500.

OK, What about an unarmoured ship's hull?

Does each point of armour add 500 or do you have 500 no matter how many points of armour the super-dreadnaught has? It can stop a Particle Beam but not a solar flare?

I think the basic hull should provide 500 with each point of armour adding 100 more protection. That still makes major flares a problem, but gives better protection to the more well armoured military ships.

I've taken the word 'armour' out here now, so it just applies to 'hull'.

Armour per se won't help against radiation, but we might put something in High Guard that will...

That works.

Thanks Matt.
