Raider Wreckage

After 4 games of Star Raiders, I have lost 2 ships (both on long raids - Zones 6 and 7).

Here is the latest debacle:

Early on, the raider was swarmed by 5 scout rockets. The gunners managed to destroy 3 and drive off 1.

Later, the raider ran through heavy AR (anti-rocket) artillery, taking out its shields and dramatically weakening the hull. Finally, the hull was breached and the raider destroyed.

I'm still tweaking the rules to improve survival odds. One idea I have is to add a repair phase at the end of each Zone. I may also add escorts, like B-17.
