Despite the fact it's actually quite hard to die, and running away is usually easy, we still get a lot of CMDRs attacking weaker ships (shame on you! ) and killing them quickly.
But what if..... Having your weapons retracted increases your shields resistance and/or HP. ..? With a delay to prevent spamming or some other exploit.
<Insert science here>
It'd help the survivability of non combat CMDRs who generally panic when confronted, and give them a bit of time to escape.
It also doesn't effect piracy too much, because limpets still bypass shields (don't they?).
Probably has holes, but I just thought of it... Lol
