Last time I ran the numbers, the fact that the BMC fires before Amps, every time, helped matters in certain situations. Plus, the multi stack hits can be a huge factor.

Correct, if there would be multiple stacks to hit. Wink Main design of beamer (let's say AMP) and supporting high init megaD+sapper nub are the only two that move forward. Arm nub with retreat orders is at column 1 or 0, and chaff is at 2. The megaD nub still fires before BMC-one, kills chaff, saps shields, dies in return-fire. Arm opens and heavily hits the sapped advancing BMC, then AMP opens and (with its much bigger damage maybe) clears the front. Even if not, there is now only one stack in the range of BMC nubs. That's why I suggested keeping the number of designs low. Smile

any BB or DN hull would have a higher initial init then an Amp armed Nub

Well, who cares, if they shot the first, when I'm 75% deflected and 66% jammed, and they aren't? Wink Even with double nub hull costs my nubs have still at least double their defense/costs ratio. Ant that still doesn't exclude MY specialized first-shoot BMC BB design. Wink
