ship to ship the nubian wins - that much was pretty much always going to be true.

However...

In the example of nubians vs cruisers as you stated above...

4 nubs = 24 missiles.
11 cruisers = 66 missiles.

Therefore when you chuck chaff into the battle (which there almost certainly will be) - does the tide not turn in favour of the cruisers superior numbers??

Suggestion: add into the battle some basic 9x jammer 30, 3x engine, 9x AMP, 3x Sapper, 9x sheild, 3x capacitor, 3x manovering jet nubains and some standard x-ray laser chaff - both in equal numbers for each side. See how the battle alters??

Comparing ship to ship like this will not give a true result.


Reason for the 300kt (ish) weight limit was because in the whopping total of 4 games in which i've reached the end game scenario with a race capable of putting up a fight... I've discovered non-gateable missile ships are a MAJOR pain in the behind. I like to be IT or to only use gateable ships (BB era causes lots of hassle!!!! Often I'm forced to scrap this ethos) because it makes defense a damned sight easier as well as re-enforcing front lines!!
