Horwasp Question: "When a Horwasp unit takes damage the...

Horwasp Question:

"When a Horwasp unit takes damage the clans onboard are killed and the combat effectiveness is reduced. If there are not enough clans on board then real damage is taken. Horwasp ships automatically regenerate damage at a rate of 5% per turn."

lets say i am fighting a 24000er Hive and do 10% damage. Does this mean this is now a 21600er Hive?

So if i wanna estimate a 2nd ship fighting the hive, would i change the clans to this ammount?

The following is according to my understanding of the documentation (including the Joshua posts I've seen), and could be in error.

Yes, but with no damage.

The regeneration only comes into play when the clans have been used up.

Correct.

I have played tested a couple games complete and doing well in couple ongoing games.

As Far trying tell how much clans live after the fight i would call it hard to say.

As 80% the ones i have taking damage is Stingers or Broods fighting worlds i have notice on Stingers if they start taking some serious damage i seen like only 8000 clans which i believe is 80 out the 300 that was loaded on the ship after the world is taken.

I not had enough Soldiers or Hive fights to say on the Auto Repair. I Do know the lost clans on the following turn are just gone, But the ship will fight at 100% again.

If the Math sticks right then yes 10% would be 2400 clans gone from the Hive and ship for that turn should be at 90% hit a 2nd time it should lose more clans if it takes damaged.
(It will complete the turn with the Fighters/Torp/Weapons levels it started with minus damage)

At the Start the next turn if say 50% or 12000 was left alive the ship would be back at 100% and would fight based off those stats. (The Fighter/torps weapons will be based off the 12000, not the Full Clan load it had the turn before)

Good catch. I updated the Horwasp Combat Strength page to state this clearly.

If you damage a Horwasp ship to 100%, all the clans onboard die. ok so far...

But does the Horwasp ship then automatically start a second combat round with 0 damage, 1x lasers, 1x mk1 tube, base fighters, and base combat mass?

Can not speak of the hive but every other hive ship i have used hit 100 and is dead. IF listen to the Few Clans escaped a Intercepted ship/pod that i have seen Unlike the Hive Swarm it does seem try target the world closest to it when that happens which could trigger ground combat.

Now if you Webmine or Rob them of their fuel i do believe all are consider dead at that point.

And trust me if i am playing a Hive that got Caught in a Sudden Webmine field its Swarm time. IF have Clans on board. Even a Base 0 clan Hive ship will fight at the basics levels, might be the only time a Hive would not be Auto-Regenerate with 0 clans on board and had taken damaged.
