Guys, think about this. 3 or 4 well-placed Harpoons can take out a carrier, why can't a few Novas? I do think fighters shouldn't be able to kill a battleship, but let's not go overboard on the upgrades.
I am a long-absent Supreme Commander, Executive Commander, Grand Admiral, Fleet Admiral, and Captain in the mighty Hellfire Legion. I have returned, and am on an urgent mission from Drake Thastus to return the Legion to its former glory, and to claim the galaxy for its own. Only then will I be able to rest.

Err Lancer, the range mate ... Over twice as far on the BS. Think that counts for something. Energy difference
between fighter and BS has been mentioned.
I'm not anti cap, but ... Did you get smacked by a few small ones or something ?

BTW.the Carrier have defence weapon, and have many fighter.....usually the harpoons will shows on the radar, and Carrier will fire missile of let those fighter to destroy those harspoon, and Carrier won't take down by 3 or 4 harpoons......

BS'gun should be have long range, what the huge gun don't have long range? thing about this(RL), Iowa Battleship's gun, can attack enemy when they can't even see it by human's eyes.....
And the Armor Upgrade.....the price piss me off......Capital Armor Upgrade MK VII...245million..........
Lancer, Harpoons dive down to 50 feet above the water, so the radar is confused by the waves.
And not all carriers have the CIWS and Sea Sparrow defense systems. The US are the only ones that actually work. If you spam enough of them, you'll get a hit. Or just launch a sub with a nuclear-tipped torpedo. Or, if you're really desperate, launch a frickin ICBM at em. That's what the Liberty Cruiser's for.

I personally belive everything is balanced just fine as it is. In the real world you need a Cap ship to beat a Cap ship. The reason why carriers are so popular is to provide support for ground and naval troops.
A torpedo fighter crippeled the massive Bismark but it took the rest of the royal navy to sink her.

e....i think usually will have some plane will cruise around the Carrier to make the Carrier's eyes can see longer..and the Carrier never drive alone......AEGIS Cruisers, AEGIS Destroyers and some Frigates..and may be will have some Sub
I must agree with Supernova there... Almost 900mil for an armor, even for a capital ship, is more than a system costs. SLIGHT Scale problems. I think that idea about faction-backed guns being more powerful is a good one, since we obviously can't restrict the capships. That'd also force people to RP much more.
And now for my second trick (Possible thread hijack): The Kusari Battleship! ANd all EIGHTEEN of it's heavy guns. Those of us in Bretonian Battleships and Outcast DREADNAUGHTS (BIGGER than battleship, thank you) are feeling just a tad outgunned. Could we slice four of those, please? (And drop some of that armor; there are even exposed PIPES on that thing.)
