Well, bombers do not need to be nerfed, fighters need to be buffed to make it so they're effective escorts.

If anything, Gunboats and Fighters need to be buffed. Nerfing a bomber won't end in anything but making them worse against capital ships...</strike>

Just Nerf B/B
Simple enough, and the best Idea IMHO

Alright..I've been digging threads out of their graves recently, and no I wont stop. So..before this dies..better say what I have to..
The only good thing that would come out of taking away guns from bombers..is that, it would be much easier for fighters to take out bombers, even the experienced ones..since..your shield wont go down that easy, unless..you take a mine in your face or something.
Anyway..what this would do, would lower the in-game bomber usage, imo..which would be a good thing...once I saw some kind of..murdering group in NY, killing mostly everything they come across (and yes, sometimes I do that too, not my fault), there were 6 of them...4 falcatas, 1 Rogue GB, and only 1 -sabre-...yes..only 1 fighter. But..even if this group was mostly bombers..they took out 4-5 fighters easily..mainly cause they have that uber aim that experienced players have, the ones that throw a SNAC at your face and you dont even have the time to say ''wtf?''
Thats just 1 example..sirius is like this, people tend to use bombers more then fighters...I voted 'NO' cause doing that might mess up some things...but the only good in this imo, would lower the bomber count.
Made my point...now, back to digging...

Yesterday I fought three Falcatas and a Hacker VHF in my BH Manta. I am a poor pilot. I killed one and stripped another of equipment before taking a SNAC to the face. I took the SNAC when I started eating.
Bear in mind that any changes you make to fighters affect everything else. As has been said, higher weapon speeds for fighters will completely change fighter vs fighter battles, and will in particular widen the disadvantage for those who don't have an 80ms ping.

Keep in mind that bombers should be only efficient to what they were created : killing caps... Nothing more.
As I said previsouly (like over 9000 times), give them the agility and the size between actual bombers and the gunboats.
