What if...

[weylin]

EVERYTHING needs to be stepped down.

the differences in ship classifications needs to be dampened
strong weapons need to be weaker
strong ships need to be weaker
capitals need to be weaker
bombers need to not do so much to capitals in response to that change
systems need to be more vulnerable so they are a primary target.

weapon and other system upgrade differences should be very minor and have a clear payoff in effeciency vs damage

having better weapons should result in only short term effecency
having better shields should put a drain on energy
having a better thruster should drain more power in response to its better durration


Seriously guys, if you look at a starflier compared to somthing such as a raven.
L O L
flier doesnt stand a chance.

all these super leet ships should be stepped down to the 3K armour range... 2.00 class 10 codenames doing like 200-400 damage


Do you see where this is going? just dampen everything so the differences arnt so unrealistically extreme.

"better" ships can still hold an edge in combat, but no so extreme that starflier + [insert leet ship here] = checkmate, pwnt, gtfo.
