Ok... ship balancing

[Tenacity]

every bomber or vhf that come to this distane to bs is destroyed... so single bs can take down big fleet of bombers ....

torpedoes and supernovas have a 3500+ range for a reason. Battleships arent exactly known for quick manuevering.

Uhh....only chance a VHF to take down a GB is:
1. when the GB is a complete noob
2. VHF has inferno

I dont consider myself a 'complete' noob, just mostly noob :P

Back when I was pirating with bloodsail (rogue GB, solaris turrets) I had plenty of problems with liberty's fighters, and few used infernos. They can easily dodge GB fire if no missile turrets are being used by the GB, and even advanced debilitators are enough to burn through a gunboat shield. The VHF has much higher agility, allowing it to keep out of the GB's fire while returning fire at an almost constant rate.

Though I admit, usually the problem wasnt a single fighter. The fighter would find me, and burn up my shields and batteries while I was trying to kill him (to little effect, due to my bad aim, lag, and their manuverability) and then some liberty bomber or cruiser would come along to finish the job.

Anyways, once 4.85 is released and my Order character switches to a zoner gunboat, I'm thinking about going with 4x order missile turrets and just running away from anything scarier than a transport.
