The game used to run like a large and ever changing game of rock paper scissors. Everything had its counter before 5.0.

LF to VHF: Good against LF to VHF and bombers, in numbers good against Gunboats.

Bombers were good against Capitals(as they should be) but useless against VHF's and below, also requiring multiple to take down a GB or larger(this was perfect before imo)

GB's were excellent against snubs of all kinds, a good support ship for other capitals.

Destroyers, Cruisers, Battlecruisers and Battleships all float at varying effectiveness against each other- All requiring at least two of the lower classes to take down a solo Battleship- This was all great before.

Why did this need to change?

Now, a solo gunboat can piss off a Battleship- Maybe not kill effectively, but still send it running.

Bombers are next to useless against capitals- The number of missiles you can carry is very, very poor given the hit rate is low in an actual fight. Edit: In a fight I had to re-stock 3 times on missiles using a bomber, pounding missile after missile at a capital with lots of help, to return a 10ish % damage when it eventually went down?

This is more than a usual "skill issue" thing.

Super edit: Capitals should rely on their snubcraft team mates to clear enemy snubcraft.
