How about making the falcata into a heavy bomber?

[Mímir]

Underpowered compared to the Praetorian? Isn't that one of the worst bombers available?

Yes, but the corsairs only have one bomber available and the outcast now have two, a light/medium and a medium one. It would be nice if each had its own distinctive characteristics*, and the Outcast could really find use for a heavy anti-cap bomber [especially now with random battleships from gallia turning up all over the place]. It would be unfair if both OC bombers outperformed the pretorian in a one-on-one, so thats why I thought it might be reasonable to let the falcata be slightly underpowered all in all compared to the praetorian.

EDIT: *As opposed to now where I fail to see any reason to choose the Falcata over the Cutlass, except for saving yourself a trip to the Omegas, where you arent supposed to be anyways, to buy the cutlass.
