Salvage

Salvage was introduced in Round 4 to lessen the impact of losing one's fleet (when defending). Salvage is an amount of resources that defenders share based on the value of ships lost in combat. Defenders get an amount of salvage relative to the fleet-value they have present in the combat. More value present equates a larger portion of salvage gained. For round 35 salvage is 15% of attacking fleets and 30% of defending fleets. It has been both higher and lower in previous rounds but always between 10-30% for attacking fleets and 20-40% for defending fleets. Cathaar get a bonus of 40% and Terran get a bonus of 25% on salvage earned.
