Fighter Explosives (missiles + torps and mines) Poll

Yes, I agree with Mjolnir. You need to make a tactical decision in an LF, for it is not reasonable that it has the same capacity as a bigger ship.

You're trying to bring realism into the conversation. Nothing is realistic in Freelancer. A Starflier can carry, what, 20 passengers? Mk. 2 ships have more capacity than their Mk. 1 cousins, despite being the exact same size.

The question should concern balance, and a LF with 2-4 missiles is no more unbalanced than a VHF with 2-4 missiles. It's more agile, yes, but that's the whole point of flying a LF, and the reason why they have fewer guns, lower gun levels, less armor, and no torpedo. Agility matters when using missiles, but not as much as it does when using guns.
