Removal of Cerbs/General Capital Weaponry overhaul

[Highland Laddie]

Is there just no way/solution to tone down Cerbs to not make them the go-to obvious choice for cap combat? Maybe make them more energy hungry? Shorten their range? Give them some real negative quality so that benefiting from them produces the player to take some other major tactical considerations into account?

Also, I thought cruisers/destroyers are more for killing GBs and maybe carriers, not BSs...?

Also, how does making Cerbs a house-specific weapon change how they affect combat? Seems like that solution changes nothing unless you only fly caps for the pretty colors of the guns...

There also seems to be a disconnect between some peoples' notions of what "fun" combat is supposed to be in a cap. For some, they'd like them to be longer.....how long should a fun cap fight take? And are we talking 1v1 or fleets there? For others, they already hate how long some snub fights take, and don't want to see cap fights go in the same direction.

Maybe we need to take better stock of what players here are really looking for in all of this before just jumping to all the #remove this and #buff that options. There seems to be a wide gap in the common ground that needs to be more settled first.
