Alright, anyone who is involved in Tau-23 fights, and that's a lot of people, knows how awesome Cali guns are.
He/She also knows how literally -pathetic- Java station guns are.
Cali has a large number of very fast Pulse class guns that can easily keep a BS shield down.
I know that because I'v seen an IMG Carrier's shield being kept down.
They are also fast enough to hit dodging VHF's, not to mention Bombers, Pytho's shield is always down when near Cali.
Now, Java station has guns that are so pathetic that they can't even scratch a Sabre.
If a Gunship comes and stands in front of Java, Java will stand in front of that gunship and do nothing.
I mean, it shoots something, but it does no damage.
One 101st member has a habit of coming to Java in his Sabre and sitting on the antenna.
And he can do that because Java can't shoot him there.
So he sits and laughs. In a VHF!
Today we had an Outcast raid party, some 3 VHF's, GB and a Dread.
Dread was sitting 500m away from Java, shooting everything and feeding smaller ships with bots.
Now, I don't want Cali to lose it's awesome guns. I want Java to get at least 50% of Cali's power.
If Cali can keep a BS shield down, Java should at least keep a Destroyer shield down.
But I'd shoot for equality, because enemies ought to keep away from each other's bases.
So, in short, can we -please- get some of those Pulse guns mounted on Java?
We don't need guns that do hull damage, just shield damage to keep those big ships at least 2k away from Java.
It's a station after all, and to be there, it should be able to defend itself. Just like Cali station can.
Cali has weapon platforms around so it will still be more powerful anyway.
I hope some Outcasts will give support to this request as well, at least for the sake of fairness.
