OK, for those of you who missed the main point of this thread, here it is.
Caps currently have an all around suck factor. give them guns that at least lay down alot of hurt on other caps. If you can look me in the eye and say that its perfectly reasonable that a anti fighter loadout on a battleship should struggle to take down two bombers, so be it. But at least give us capital Rp'ers some time to actually RP. Give us an armor boost, and remove solaris. OR make solaris not suck. we arent asking to become big "I WIN" buttons, we are asking to have firepower at SOMTHING back. Currently it takes longer for a fighter to down a bomber than it does for two battleships to kill one another. Stop whining that we dont have skill and look at it from the other side of the playing field, before insulting the intelect of all those who actually DO roleplay and fight in capitals.
