Gunboats

[Ayem]

Razor and missiles should probably keep the same power drain. Some gunboats have a much smaller power supply than others. My rogue gunboat can fire two missiles at once, my outcast gunboat can do about three (basic), not that I ever use that many at once.

It's easy to say, oh that's too many, but when you're mixing it up with guns of the cerb variety or pulses or razors you often end up just dodging for a pass because you're down to your last dredges of pewjuice.

The current state of gunboats is fine, I think. Two bombers, or one bomber and a fighter have a good chance of taking down a gunboat, dependant on the skill of the gunboat pilot, obviously.

Edit: I'm a bit of a gunboat enthusiast at the moment. I became utterly sick of trying to hit level 5 npcs with razors and supernovas while keeping the tradelanes down. Gunboats turn npcs into a light aperitif.
