Choose for the route, then maintain it

The best value comes from matching a protection profile to the enemy and damage type expected on a route. A larger resistance number has little value if the crew loses the mobility, supplies, or capacity that make extraction possible.

Keep repair requirements in the loadout conversation. Brigand lists rags and armor plates as repair materials; Legend’s repair type is Heavy Armor, and Gothic’s is Moon Armor.
