Add loads more guns to heavy battleships, also give them anti-snub specific slots that can only mount anti snub cap weapons. They should be dangerous for smaller ships. I still dont think the rheinland battleship, one of the biggest bricks god ever created, having only *-4-* prims makes sense.
Should be like 8 prims and 5 heavies or so. Make them feel like the ultimate conception of firepower
This Galaxy is vast; its wonders and beauty are almost unfathomable. But the galaxy also hides dark secrets, some of which have lain dormant since the beginning of time itself. There is a danger in secrets, both in seeking and in knowing. Some things are meant to be hidden from view. Some mysteries defy understanding, and sometimes even the things we think we know are untrue. Some secrets should remain untouched.
@ Mr. NPC -- I'm getting the feeling that you haven't flown one before, I could be wrong of course.
Battleships can be a pain to fly, docking them to TL's is a pest unless you take extra time to get lined up properly, several of them have the 'tail wag' problem and you are in deep poo if you have any more than one player controlled fighter/bomber coming after you.
Best speed, apart from cruise is 90 (no thruster) and they don't have BATTS anymore, even if the hull has been beefed up quite a bit.
Battleships aren't as much of a threat as they used to be, it's a simple as that.
I'm seriously thinking about going back to the Cattle Bruiser, not as much pure firepower, but more fun to fly.
Can we has the kind of cap ship combat from 2012?
this long snipe war sucks cos cap fate depends on whos snubs get ganked first
atleast when its heavy vs med or light
