| Message text I was in a similar situation some game ago...
It was 1 SE.5a (me) vs 1 Albatross D.V (my opponent).
After 2 frontal attacks I got a total of 1B and 1R damages, the damage points taken were minimal (1 to the engine and 2 to the fuselage), but I got "Fabric Tears" and "Engine Damaged".
After comparing my maneuver chart with my opponent's one I decided to retire (I was near my border, so I left the map in 2 turns).
I think to have done the right choice (IMHO this game is better if every player tries to keep his pilot alive, instead of making suicidal runs), but the thing I didn't like was that I won the game, since I got more points from my attacks... In this way people are encouraged to escape as soon as they are the ones with higher score... So I like Regis' idea to give a penality based on remaining damage-points...
