Agreeable or not, that's how (don't have that as a certain fact, only the balance team devs can say it, but you and i know a little of it) i understand the balance is made.
There is no other decent logic.
And since the thread is about Liberty Navy ships balance vs Order ships (that has small scale interactions according to the balance devs eyes, again assuming), there's no point to be made.
Ingame =/ Lore, thus balancing is made in a total diferent way.
Yes, i agree Liberty Navy ships need a buff.
No, i don't agree it's due to Order ships or that they should be nerfed.
