Armor vs. firing/mobility

There are some units and structures in the game that trade mobility, their ability to fire, or other functionality for additional armor. Crab and Gauss are just two examples. I couldn't find a good reference that lists all of them in one place though. I was thinking of this kind of format:

Maximum defensive ability
=========================

Unit: Felon
How to set up for max defense: Set firing mode to "hold fire."
Weaknesses/reasons to toggle fire mode: Depletes shield energy to fire.
Advantage of setting to "hold fire": Full power to shields.
Disadvantage of setting to "hold fire": No offensive damage.
Automatically enters a different mode on move command? No.

This looks like Wiki stuff.

My instinct tells me that the most important thing to do is get started doing it, instead of just discussing it. So without further ado, I've just added that info to the Felon article on the wiki: https://zero-k.info/mediawiki/index.php?title=Felon

That's my first time adding to the wiki, so anyone please feel free to edit or revert it, and more importantly, add more to other pages!

That was just an example of how I'd like to see it organized. You really didn't have to quote me verbatim. I also think my information may need to be checked. Thanks though.

"Quote you verbatim"? You mean paraphrased?

It appeared that you were asking for help creating more reference material for units.

Ok, removed it. I can't say I that understand what you're asking for with this thread.

So impulsive...

You basically copy-pasted some of my phrases that really should have been paraphrased instead (like "no offensive damage"), but I never said I minded it, I actually thanked you for making the change to the wiki page if you haven't noticed. I have no clue why you removed it. The point of my last post was to say that my information you copied may not be 100% accurate and needed to be checked.

As for my original post... What I wanted was not to create this list myself but to have someone who knows much more about it to help fill in the blanks.
