Even bigger problems come when there's more than 1 BS.
that is total ********
Ask joe what me, him and 4 other 101st sabres did to 3 logates. 2 with solaris.... oh thats right. we almost killed one, took down a cruiser, a gunboat then left as they went for massive capspam

So you almost killed one of them. Alright.
The hell do the other ships have to do with three Legates?
Your argument is flawed.

a) is Legate a medium battleship? No it's a heavy one => solaris have too short range to work properly
b) you ask the same joe how does that solaris LN dread work;)
' Wrote:Bombers can easily destroy it without the Osiris even scratching their hull by staying outside Solaris' range... Which is 1k.
edit: come to think of it, enough fighters with MR can do that... So I respectfully disagree with Mjolnir's claim that 20 fighters can't kill a BS with the right set-up...
Osiris can easily strafe from SNs or MRs at over 1k.
Again try Sails's solaris Osiris for reference.

Either gunboats are overpowered or cruisers are underpowered in my opinion.
In attempt to tough gunboats up to face fighters and bombers, they've become a threat to cruisers which they really shouldn't be. One heavy gunboat can damage a cruiser enough and two gunboats can typically spell the doom of a cruiser. I'm not saying the second scenario is unfair since a pair of bombers or fighters can also defeat a gunboat easily but the damage a single gunboat can dish out to a cruiser is considerably more than one fighter/bomber can do to a gunboat.
