Ship Types
Humanity adopted a loose mechanism to explain space vessels. They describe the ship’s offensive capability as its Power. The ship’s defensive capability and general combat/incident survival is described as its Armor. When energy shielding became available to improve a ship’s survivability, then Sheilds described the shielding.
