Since the point of these events is to have fun, not necessarily win at all costs for either side, then we should do our best to keep the participants evenly spread between the sides.
Given how long the fight lasted this time, I am of the opinion that we should not use armor upgrades at all. I think the Patriot's extra agility and small size makes up for their armor deficit compared to the Dagger and Bloodhound. I want a good fight, but that doesn't necessarily mean a long one, especially if it means that every other player on the server is going to be banned from the system we're in until we are finished. Also, using armor upgrades makes it that much more expensive for other players to set up a ship to join us. We should keep it as cheap and easy as possible, which is already more difficult on the unlawful side because of the way your new ship starting rep is configured.
