Armour/shields



As might be expected, my random thoughts on Armour eventually triggered some long emails from my only serious rival for the post of "person who cares TOO much". Amid much thought provoking stuff, here's a thought:


ST uses shielding and armour for each aspect (otherwise how could you stick to genre and demand "All power to the forward shields Scotty").


Which leaves me wondering if it would be nice to have that as a thing to do; put all the power to the forward shields, or the rearward shields or whatever. We could all be mini-Savasku, juggling our power budget to where we needed it the most. Yeah, that's why we don't do it, because it would essentially suck.
