Should probably mention the new stuff that happens when ramming (ships turn, but I'm not certain of the exact information on this). --Thunderbird 01:29, 7 July 2006 (PDT)

Rock collisions vs. Ship collisions

Note that while I'm certain the numbers are correct for ship vs. wall/rock collisions, there appears to be a more complex equation for ship vs. ship collisions. I've certainly seen different damage than what "should" have been taken based on these calculations, particularly when ships were of significantly different sizes (war brig vs. grand frig, for example).

I plan to do some PVP testing of ship v. ship damage soon, and try to come up with some solid numbers for that, which is why I changed the order of the description, expecting to need to change the ship v. ship description. --Blackfletch (yeah, I'm incompetent at this Wiki stuff still. Feel free to change this discussion to be what it should, and I'll try to figure out how to do Wiki discussions properly later.)

I've always thought it to be a ram with anything = .5 damage. --Sagacious (talk) 11:56, 17 July 2006 (PDT)
