' Wrote:The problem with removing cruiser CD's, is how they behave in PvP.
Now if we can get some slow moving missiles that disrupt cruise and do damage for use in cap vs cap. That might alleviate the issue allowing for the removal of cruiser CDs
Battleships do fine without CD's, the worst thing that could happen is that cruisers would need a backup with CD's.
They would still work efficently against battleships (if there's a CD carrier with them).
If traders are being told that they need to hire scouts and escorts in order to trade, I don't see a problem in telling Cruiser users the same, that they need to have a CD backup in order to do a better job.
The slow missile/cd might work as well, but it seems to me it would need more testing and balancing than removing the CD's.
