+=== Benefits ===
-This action lasts for 300 time (= 5 minutes).
-It requires brain-wiring to the ship defense system. It is extremely intense and increases stress level a lot.
-Benefits:
 * For duration of this order, your ship will have a //"cancel hit"// chance, tested when your ship is going to be damaged.
-* Cancel Hit chances will be the same as the **Warfare grade** of this crew. So, if your crew has B in Warfare (meaning between 60 and 80 %) this means you get good "cancel hit" chances.
+* Cancel Hit chances will be the same as the **Warfare grade** of this crew. So, if your crew has B in Warfare (meaning between 60 and 80 %) this means you get good "cancel hit" chances of 60 to 80 percent.
 * In addition, any damage received if the hit was not canceled will also be reduced by a percentage equal to the Warfare grade. So, if you are going to receive 20 points of damage, and have 60% warfare, you instead receive 8 points of damage.

 * If Signals Grade is above Warfare Grade, the crew will use his Signals academic training instead of Warfare experience; for same results!
-Risks:
+=== Risks ===
+**Stress Level:**
 * For duration of this order, every second, your crew will test his "Toughness/Resistant" grade; every failure gives 1 stress damage.
+**Fatal Wounds:**
 * For duration of this order, if your ship takes damage, your crew must test his "Toughness/Resistant" grade (minus the calculated damage); failure gives immediate damage to health and stress. This can be fatal, but usually will injure the crew the first time.
+**Decrease in performance:**
 * Defense performance will slowly decrease over time: if crew took stress damage and consequently has less than 100 stress resistance, defense effectiveness is reduced by the missing percentage.
-You may have several crew managing shields at the same time, for same benefits and risks.
+* Defense performance also has a curve, with less effectiveness as the 5 minute time goes on.
+=== Using several crew to manage shields ===
-As a reminder, most crew have about 80 - 120 health; this is calculated with Toughness grade * 2.
+It is advised to rotate your crew using this. You may also have several crew managing shields at the same time, for same benefits and risks.
-As a reminder, most crew have about 80 - 120 initial stress resistance; this is calculated with Discipline grade * 2.
+As a reminder, most crew have about 60 - 150 health; this is calculated with **Toughness grade * 2**.
