Default thoughts - the source of all problems and disbalances

... is the Weapon Mounts.
If you think about it, remove the weapon mounts and puff, the weapons are not as devastating anymore, regeneration becomes a must as well as damage resistance, smaller ships finaly get their stance against bigger ships. Technology difference between player becomes less important, and range is a must.

Even the almighty Allegiance Converter is only 70% effective, so its not a full convert, whether you have talisman or not.

and everything else.
Yet, it is a great feature to the game, but it breaks the balance in pieces.

So now i say. Next update should review the weapon mounts. Also i say that only penaltisized(sp) ships should get mounts - meaning BB, DN and BS. Only then it makes sense. Bases and WPs should have their mounts cut down too, though not as hard.

Anyone with opinions?
I will e-mail this suggestion to MM shortly.
