A solution for balance....possibly.

[Jamez]

Ok i was pondering at the bridge of SkyShark, thinking about me getting my butt munched by a huggy (which it should but it infuriates me.)

I just figured out why the Huggy is so good... Number of Turrets (yes i am slow.)

So, My proposal is:

Gunboats are OK IMO, but i would like some feedback on this.

Cruisers/Destroyers should have roughly 10-12 turrets.

Battleships should have 16 - 20 turrets

That would mean that:

Battleships are as deadly as they should be.
Cruisers/Destroyers need support to take down a mighty Battleship(the Lib cruiser may destroy one using the Improved Forward gun in the next mod.)
Gunboats cant kill Battleships or Cruisers.

I understand that the power generators of Cruisers/Destroyers and Battleships would need to be increased to power the new amount of weapons.

This will also mean that gunboats will not be able to do stuff they shouldnt, like killing a BS or a Cruiser/Destroyer.

Now I want honest opinions but i dont want to be stomped on. If you dont like the idea, give it some thought before you shoot me down in flames.
