TL;DR version:
if shield gets nerfed, buff its armor +250 <--> +350
if shield doesn't get nerfed, buff the shield to .9, leave armor as is.
so, assuming the following is correct:
- the Conquest was built after the Eagle
then, IMO, it should get slightly more armor than having the same amount as the Eagle, as it does state it should have MORE than a cruiser, which it does not
( it technically doesn't have less either, but still
), plus its weird to have a ship with the same armor value as a higher tech ship(though thats more of IMO than a game PoV).
secondary reasoning is the upcoming shield nerf
but only found that out just now, and the armor has been bugging me for far longer than that(personally, it should get a shield buff, as every other midline ship has better shield systems than its low tech counterpart, id guess i would advocate that it should be .9, just to show that shields were thought of, but not as much as the other ships of the same era)
ill begin by asking for 250 more armor, but also suggest the max buff should be no more than +350, if simply to give leeway to the dominator, which should be that much more massively armored.
( for "why not the odyssey as well?" because it can shield tank the deathstar.
)
