why BS's have no thrusters
i mean, every stupid miniship has energy for thusters and a big BS with an giant powercore dont have one...
come one guys
its unrealistic
it drives me crazy to creep around with my BS...
just change it on 4.85 full
Battleships are "expected" to be slower than any other ship around. Gunboats and such should be able to thruster away from these beasts. Battleships already have a huge advantage over everything else as far as firepower goes. A battleship can fire his guns up to 3 times farther than any other ship. Why nerf everyone else so these big thugs can destroy us and then go lol'ing on their merry way?

I think we should try it once to know how it looks, and than make a wise desision

If they do get one ... the thruster speed should be slower than that of a gunboat ... after all ... a gunboat has less mass to push.

How about giving some of them (Those below 1 mill of base armor or so) multiple thrusters then ?
Say 5 for example giving total boost in speed up to 10 ...
As far as i remember 5 thrusters would drain juice 5 times faster then single one, also it would only move at 100 so chasing anything would still be next to impossible.

Battleships are balanced without thrusters. Why add a new layer of complexity to the balance system?
