- Weaken the nubian by increasing the cost of the hull (perhaps 2x) and reduce base armor strength to 2,000. It should still outperform a BB in general.
- Add more armor slots on warships to make heavily armored ships more appealing (if it will be slow and ungateable, at least it will be tough).
- Push BC, BB, and DN back 1 or 2 tech levels.

I actually don�t mind the strength/cost ratio for Nubians (it is level 26 tech after all), it just seems really out of place compared to the rest of the available hulls. There is a big gap between Dreadnoughts (con tech 16) and Nubians on the tech tree, and an even bigger gap between Nubs and Battleships (con tech 13).

It looks kinda weird how you get new combat ship hulls every two or three tech levels, then nothing for a dozen tech levels, then you get a super-duper ship hull that is such a vast improvement over anything else you can come up with. There�s virtually nothing between construction 16 and construction 24�

Pushing back the tech level requirements for BC, BB, and DN, helps, but I don�t think it is enough. I would add hull types in between tech 16 and 26.

If there were a few ship hulls in between, maybe the Nubian era would not be so much of a shock. Maybe a 2000 armor hull with eight general use x3 slots or something similar. Something clearly not as good as a Nubian, but possibly still worth producing in the Nubian era.
