Korrd,Aug 28 2006, 11:46 AM Wrote:The current problem with BS weps is speed.
As the range was increased, you can now fire at a target further away. But they are still ineffective at that distance because of the time they take to reach the target. They [the big bs weps] move so slow that you can dodge them easily now, As i stated in the previous quote.

BS weapons need even more range. My Spyglass has to face the target to be effective, but because the rear turrets are soooooo far away, I'm ramming them before I can shoot my battle razors and infernos with any accuracy. No red cross until them. I think they need about a 3-6k range. Battleships should be hammering each other from across battlefields of fighters, cruisers, AND gunboats.

Quote:BS speed should be increased, but power usage should not be touched. They use a lot of power now. If we increase the power usage with the speed, they will be as un-effective as they were in the MF turrets era.

So with BS weps we increase range and speed so the projectile is fast enough to hit a moving target at max_range.

Only the anti-battleship weapons. Anti-fighter should miss at the distance in my opinion.

Other than the above, I agree with Korrd's statement.

To then tack on custom faction systems is pretty unrealistic in the story sense, maybe just having these new systems thoroughly in keeping with their respective house themes would be enough though. I can't deny I like the idea of the super-heavy defences for each faction's inner sanctum with the mkIII NPC's carrying a worthy reward for their destruction, like "elite pilots/captains" :0)

I will have to agree with you here. It makes a lot of sense. Of course, for border world people, similar things could happen using the faction they have.
