    okay, when they get this carapace. Would a 700mm Tank Shell kill them?

    and what happens when all my weapons are used against your race?

    Quite honestly, at a certain point, it becomes biologically impossible to effectively create carapace for the base soldiery that can deflect 700mm tank shells.

    However, they will devise larger organisms with armor that CAN survive 700mm tank shells, and use those as a tank "equivalent".

    Actually, yeah Durandal, I'd like to know as well since that's the basic weaponry used by my Legionaries.

    Plasma is essentially a contained ball of superheated matter in this, right?

    Generally speaking, Plasma will take a long-ass time for the Fu'Rei to really understand how to counter. Plasma is a very very powerful type of weaponry, and countering it will probably require a secondary, temporary "film" to be placed upon the carapace that can counteract the destructive properties of it. This won't be foolproof, and will probably only provide minimal protection, but plasma is hard to counter period, especially considering that the race, as a whole, doesn't utilize traditional energy resources, such as force fields and the rest of that.

    Eventually, they might come up with a makeshift "force field" option, but that would be weaker than everyone elses.

    The fact of the matter is, outright mimicking technology in biology is HARD, due to the fact that the two systems are, fundamentally, separate from each other.
