Gunboat Balance

[chopper]

I think they are something in between.
2 Gunboats were always able to beat the crap out of Battleship.
And 1 gunboat (if pilot is a good aimer) can make a massacre on small crafts.

They are ships made for small battles, or solo playing if you like it.
Their survivability is not really the best in big battles.
Imagine how long would 3 gunboats last in fight against 5,6 fighters:)
This was not about gunships, it was about gunboats.

So, RickJames, i can understand and see the Osiris battleships dying.
But i can't imagine why fighters + battleships didn't have a teamwork.
For example, if each of the battleships took 1 gb as a target,
they would both have to take distance so they can recover their shields.
In that moment, fighters are essential, to hurt their hull, once they are out of BS range.
1 GB that is left can be ignored, he can only damage fighters, he is useless against battleships.
So, if you already have 2 BSs (which is funny also), then use them well.

Gunboats are not imbalanced, people just don't know to fight them.

It is every Corsair's responsibility to die a beautiful death in defense of Crete, regardless of how OORP or how capwhoring the opposition is. Launch your fighter, joust the battlecruisers and die a beautiful death. Then, drink it down in the bar.
