BHG BS

[Dashiell]

hm, that might explain why I am taking damage from shots I thought I evaded...

I`m always obejective about these things. I`m not trying to haggle an unbeatable uberloliicap here.:)

my experience: can`t utilse heavy weaponry effctively; power drains too fast. vertical turn is too slow for a nimble BS. when the ship is standing on end whilst in mid-turn it`s still a big target so I don`t see the point in making the vertical turn slow. reverse speed is too low: if it needs to bombard it should be able to back up faster in order to avoid a whaling contest, which it will always lose due to low armor and shield. just like the osiris is designed to fly forward and fire backwards. The BHG should be able to fly backwards while shooting forwards if it is a bombarding ship.

if the powerplant is out of the question then its other weaknesses strongpoints should be adressed. my suggestions:

- correct the hitbox. if dodging is this ships trump card, it should be able to dodge without still being hit.

- give it more strafe speed. that could compensate for the larger hitbox. it IS supposed to be a nimble BS so it`s not bad rp I think.

- more turning speed (again, the nimbleness issue

- more shield/armor to compensate for the heat it takes when getting hit due to teh nasty hitbox.

fiiring arcs could be an option but since it has a weak hull and shield I don`t think any smart pilot would like their fat @@$ pointing at the enemy

this may all sound very negative but I really like the ship. it just needs some work to be balanced against its main adversaries.
