Has replaced the "Ships Lost" category, that will be deleted from the database tomorrow.
When you take command of a ship, then the value of this ship is added to your "Resources Lost" category. When the ship is returned (or you disconnect), then the "Resources Lost" is subtracted by it's currently value (Hull Damage and ammo counts can affect the current value).
Additionally, the prestige lost has been increased for Resources Lost, it's now 0.005 (it was 0.001). This means if you destroy a ship with a value of 100, then you'll lose 0.5 prestige. A ship with a value of 10,000 will cost you 50 prestige if destroyed.

Hmmm.... and when you return more resources than you have taken you reduce your number? I mean carrying resources back to the gate with a ship should then reduce it again, right? 
And i think dying in a transport with troops should give additionally lost depending on number and type of armies. Btw i think that once your hull drops under 50% all your armies you carry should take damage too, not only ship system. So a transport landing his armies at 20% hull won't have fully healed troops.
Anyway, i think this feature will surely destroy any fair combat because you loose hull = resources very fast, the shields and armor are just protection against paintballs, not weapons. Dying in a cruiser is 25 prestige lost, i guess we will see many cowardly battles. Don't say afterwards i don't warned you. I just remind to the qsb disaster, i warned you too
