destroying subsystems or tactical systems such as turrets makes sense..... but not in freelancer as we know it.

such tactics are used in games where a fighter cannot possibly ( or a bomber ) think of fighting a capital warship - so it does the only effective thing ..... it disables the bigger ships lesser systems.

in freelancer however - it would be silly to target such subsystems, when it doesn t take any longer to destroy the entire ship anyway. - capital ship battles don t last long enough to make a tactical decision to destroy a certain subsystem.

the last capital ship fight i was part of was:

- BHG battleship & bomber on one side
- corsair osiris, bomber and corsair gunboat on the other side

the BHG battleship was destroyed within LESS than 20 seconds - from full shields and hull to zero.

as long as capital ship battles are so short - who cares for subsystems.....
