How come all ships in EVO have so many shields and armor compared to EV? I'm asking this because the Kestrel has almost as many shields as a Lazira, but costs 2 as much and is slower. Plus it's fighters die too quickly. I am starting with EV, am almost finished with EVO, (88 hours played in 2 weeks) and have downloaded huge amounts of plugins. Anyway, im going off the subject here, but anyone else spot the key differences? Post them here.

And now compare the most powerful ships (in terms of shields and armor) in both and see the differences.

This is because the games are completely different. The Kestrels shields correspond with the EV shield base. Were as the evil EVO ship corresponds with the EVO Shield base. 2 different games haveing the same set up is pointless.

You can't compare the ships from the two games, They aren't meant to be stacked against each other. The economics and weapons and attributes of the games are so different it would be like complaining that there is more juice in an orange than an apple and asking for reasons for it.

Captain Splender, you are exactly correct. The two games run on a different base. The shields on the Kestral are adequate with the shield base of EV making it a strong cruiser. The Lazira's shield correspond with EVO's shield base and therefore it is what it is.
