Strike Fighter balance
Posted: Mon Apr 17, 2017 6:00 pm
It is a welcome update that interceptor, bomber and strike fighter description shows the current weapon used.
Regarding balance: it seems that strike fighters currently use a simple combination of the two previous small craft weaponry: torpedo and energy weapon
As this tech is quite early in the tech tree, and makes the previous two types of small craft obsolete, recommend to have speed, armor and weapon difference (most advanced missiles instead of torpedo for strike fighters).
This would make all 3 craft a viable option, extend the tactical possibilities and lessen the issue, that the 3rd tier small craft is available early on, as well as should be fairly simple to change
