RE: Discovery 4.87 Balance Log - aerelm - 06-05-2013
In preparation for Bomber balance:
Another time consuming yet necessary task done - Torpedo arcs on all bombers adjusted.
New arcs will generally be enough to cover the normal field of view on a 4:3 screen, but not a 16:9 one.
Let the QQing begin.

Fighter Balance:
Every fighter now has one single missile slot.
Light fighters have the slot shared with cruise disruptor, so they'd have to pick between firepower and interceptor role.
HF/VHF hybrids (Gladiator-like ships) have the slot shared with non-torpedo cruise disruptor slot.
All other fighters have the slot shared with one of their high-end gun slots.

RE: Discovery 4.87 Balance Log - aerelm - 06-07-2013
Bomber Balance:
Cargo size of heavy bombers is now adjusted to allow usage of the light cloak.
Most of the heavier bombers couldn't use the cloak, so bombers now have the maximum cargo hold of 120.
