Micro razor

[Jinx]

things to consider, too.....

lets say its like a magma hammer - some 500 projectile speed at a 2.0 refire and maybe 1100 damage or whatever the magma hammer looks like.

when its a torpedo slot weapon, it fits in all torpedos. - small and weak ships as much as heavy and expensive ones.

so we might get the heavy bombers really doing fighter hunting. - they d still have their "relativly" large powerplant - and with additional 2 "guns" they could beat up a fighter - maybe not better than they do with a SN cannon.... but easier.

what you might get is a bomber with 4 codenames + 2 torp guns that do not need to be used like sniper rifles at an extreme energy cost. - but could be "spammed" like normal guns. - the bomber looses a lot of its anti-cap power but might gain a lot more anti-fighter power.

while specialization and choice of specialization is not a bad thing.... it turns the bombers away from its original purpose very much.

bombers can be outmanouvered by fighters, yes - but additionally to their heavier armour, they also have the ability to fire all their weapons for a much longer time.

a hammerhead with optimal guns ( gunslinger / buckshots / reavers ) drains dry in around 3 - 4 seconds. - a bomber does not.

just a prospect of what might turn up against a VHF:
BHG bomber with 1 imp. deb II, 4 buckshot, 2 micro razors - almost never running out of energy. - such a vessel wouldn t be used against capships anymore - but only vs. fighters... i m not sure if its good to face a ship that - while being a bit slower and bigger than an average fighter... can still fire 7 guns for such an extended period of time.

*even worse when its some pulse gun that does 1k shield dam at 2.0 refire.
