 === Spaceship "Attributes" ===
-Each ship is composed of a set of attributes - which are not much more that the different components, that belong into a ship. There is a minimum for each attribute, which describes what is needed to keep the ship running, and maximum, which describes, what the ship can handle. We give the player the freedom to upgrade further, but i will not improve the ship, as it cannot handle the better equipment. (Imagine a ferrari motor in a trabbi, or a p4 processor coupled to an ISA bus, I does work, but the limitation is not the component itself, rather than the architecture around)

-=== Ship Improvement ===
-Each ship can be improved in a number of ways. the easiest way is doing this but spending money on engines, shield-emitter, generator, weapons and/or missiles. [[br]][[br]]
+'''Engines''':
+Describe manoeuverability and after burner efficiency
+
+'''Shields''':
+shield strength and recharge rate
+
+'''Armor''':
+how much damage the hull can take, before the ship falls apart, or the electronic fries
+
+'''Reactor''':
+amount of energy available to energy weapons, and its recharge rate
+
+'''Computer''':
+Sensor efficiency, scan times, missile lock-on times[[br]][[br]]
