Re: Ship Mass and SpecPlate validity qustion

But wouldn’t dividing power by maximum acceleration supply an upper limit not a lower one for mass, given that the ship is presumed to need 100% of its power output to achieve said acceleration meaning the ship could mass no more than the derived figure and still achieve said acceleration with speci...
