Sector Fighters attack ship armor
Resolution
If the ship loses all armor it is destroyed. If it doesn't then it enters the sector even if there are remaining sector fighters.
When would there be a situation that there would be Sector Fighters left over? Basically in the last bullet the sector fighters attack the ships armor. This should be do or die.
All the sector fighters left over when the last bullet rolls around should attack the armor. Either they destroy the enemy ship or ALL sector fighters perish in the attempt.
Is there some other value that is coming into play?
