That's a good point. Cap ships arn't supposed to be fast, or be manuverable. They are for gettling lot's of firepower to a certain spot, looking imposing, and being able to take punishment. If you want a fast and manuverable ship, go buy an Eagel.
Like I said before, cap ships have their own dedicated reactors specificly designed to power their weapons. Fighters and freighters shouldn't be able to mount these weapons because of the power requirements. How about you make them take about as much energy as the codename weapons (most likely more), but have the cap ship reactors able to handle this load indefinately? Would that work? Is that even possible?
This is the real true story of rock and roll; it was not about anything more then, how to live your life, as a gangster, in sartorial splendor, and turning the world into a place where normality would never return again...- Malcolm McLaren
