The Idea of makin the BS' turrets numbers around equall was a good one so thats why i suggested it. Also check my posts for the cap ship shields - excuse me but 200 000 points with 250 regen is nothing - I'm telling 'ya a good VHF gets them down really fast , and then Nova and boom! Most of the guns of the BS are gone...
Also I think that We need more diversity in the BS arment choice - and do look on the idea of makin lv requiremnets for the different class of cap ships - this will make mounting unbelivable equipment of ships obsolete! (My eternal example - GB with BS shield cruser forward gun and BS missles , marsflyers - u get the pic)
All cap ships will be better to have a balanced choice of number mounts.
U remember the stock arment of the BS? A rheiland BS has the most weak turrets - but the bigger number of em , and liberty BS has the smallest number guns - but with the big damage. So there is a balance. In order to retain, it ships might have a close number of guns now. There will always be a choice to equip it , especially if we have more BS guns to choose from.
I won't hide - i have several marsflyer guns on my BS - only because every1 are using em and If i don't - I wont have a big chance of surviving a bs fight - especially when I'm against a RH BS (he is not much more expencive than the others , yet he has a big head to head advantage in firepower). At first opportuinity
i'll get them off my ship.
Yeah Angel we all know how much $$$ a BS refit costs. Yet i have spended more than enough to refit a Bret BS , A hugenout and A lib Cruser to the new "standarts" of BS arment. So I think we all have given enough $$$ for them. But I don't mind spending more to re-re-fit them with a proper BS/cruser guns. Afterall $$$ are for that - to be spent. And every class of ship should use it's class' equipment. Not spmething elce.
Bottom line - BS are rather weak now - that is what lays down the need to refit them with these fighter guns -it's just that they are better. And again - a BS shield isn't much of a protection right now - every good player in a good fighter can deal with them easily. We all want to know what are we spending those $$$ for.
Check other posts of mine in the bugs/suggestions etc. treads, (I'm rather tired of repeating over and over again the BS power issue - we need serious blance here!)
and feel free to add even better proposals for the problem.
