The BH cruiser and Gunship are both shaped like the corellian corvette... The gunship is a tad uber, too fast too small and the same number of guns as most other GB's. Not fun to face at all. especialy if you're in a fighter and it has rather a lot of missile turrets... not fun at all.
The cruiser and battle-cruiser are well. I don't really know.
But yeh... Not too cool to use your capsip for chasing down lone fighters.
Think about it terms of resourses, A cruiser takes a lot of man-power fuel and maintenace to keep flying. A BC or BB even more. That kind of cash wouldn't be spent on chasing fighter ships around, when you could spend much les and get other fighter ships to do that job.
Plus its not really that great in terms of making the game fun for everyone involved if you do that. It gives people who are killed by the people who chase lone fighters around in their caps a crappy time and it can't be that much fun for the guy flying the capship if you know you're gunna win that easily.
Its kinda like outfitting a Gunboat with full missile turrets and going out chasing ONLY Xeno's around who can't fly anything larger than bomber... Now, Fighter ship + missile gunboat = very short fight in GB's favour.
Now the guy who is doing this, please stop, its not fun for the Xeno's... We're not amused.
You had the ill luck to run into a BHG BC? Ouch. That thing is a tweaked CR-90 corvette.
There's a lot of 'ports in this mod, but that's only because Igiss had to fill a LOT of ship slots in short order for the first version (this was before Jinx and AoM came on board, I believe.)

ATTENTION ! ATTENTION ! ALL THESE SHIPS (or most of them) ARE ALREADY IN WAY TO BE CHANGED...

OK for gentle RP, OK for gentle PvP too. What do you prefer ?

Jolly good... However getting wasted by a BHG BC when flying a fighter on your own is no fun at all. Ahh well, I suppose that won't stop with the models getting changed.
I think that guy just wanted to know what it was that killed him... Well I could be one of three ships, all BHG, so yeh...

yes, i'm in the process of modeling the new BH line of capships. currently i have the destroyer modeled and 1/2 of the battlecruiser but i've not worked on them in a while and i've still not settled on the battleship design yet. i've become lazy, i'll try to force myself to finish them.
I've a line of ships that don't altogether resemble any of the factions in particular but instead are all designed by one man's vision (RP wise). So essentially takes in components of other FL designs but is also quite different.
Today was a great day for the foes of imports. Our Rheinland gang downed ~4 BHG battlecruisers, a Liberty Battlecruiser (BHG ID, Navy tag, no idea...), 2 BHG gunships, a Corsair Dreadnought, and I think a pair of Praefects, too. In three hours. We own.
@ JihadJoe: Thanks. I'm glad someone got my point.
Yeah, it's pretty obvious there is some inbalance in Disco, but that is the exception rather than the rule.
There will always be people that "follow the rules" while exploiting "loopholes" to their advantage. It's good to hear some of these uberships will be removed and / or adjusted.
In the meantime, I'm still buying an antimatter cannon.
