Battleships-POWER UP!

[Montezuma/Kukulcan]

If the dynamics of Battleship - Bomber combat needs to be changed, for example to make 3 or perhaps 4 bombers the minimum required to take down a Battleship, all that needs to be done is that Battleship shields need to be increased in capacity and recharge by a small factor, to counter the time it takes for a Bomber to restore enough power to fire a second SNAC (or 2 or 3 Bombers, depending on what is being done). As currently, the only reason a single Bomber cant solo a Battleship is because its shield recharges faster than the Bomber can fire its SNACs.

If something is to be done (I am not saying it will be done or should be done), slightly increasing Battleship shield capacity would be the most sensible way to go about it, not increasing armour hitpoints or anything like that, as a small shield increase would have little to no effect on Battleship - Battleship combat, but would be enough to make it necessary to field an extra bomber or two to take one down.
