' Wrote:I just did a few numbers for the powercore stats. It'll charge enough for a SNAC in 24.783 seconds. In that time a Battleship shield will recharge 118 959 units. The SNAC does 66 000 units of shield damage so that means 2 of these, firing at exactly the right second would only take 13 040 from the shield. If the pilots screw up by 3 seconds, that work is lost. Also, at that rate it would take 35 hits of the SNAC from each ship to kill the Battleships shield. That would take 14.5 minutes to achieve.
Add in the hull of the Battleship, the shield restoring, the low armour of the bombers and the fact they can only carry a handful of bots, I'd say the few lucky hits a Battleship gets on a bomber every now and then would be enough to take them out long before they've done any heavy damage.
And if your able to get 5-6 of these on a single loan Battleship, then it deserves to die.
Edit: if I got my numbers wrong, feel free to correct me.
So why do people bother making a bomber which isn't good against capitals?
IMO it makes no sense.
