    That's an entirely reasonable question. Can you spend more credits to give your missiles better defenses? Can you build a missile...

    At what size does it become more than a missile? Is 10 dtons still a missile? If it is, should PD laser batteries have a damage rating...

    I would much prefer a missile system of the type that we see with naval (today) or something along the lines of Starfire/Honor...

    Sure. Onboard guidance systems would be the norm. Unless you have very short ranges where light-speed communication is possible (or...

    Interesting subject one near and dear to me actually. That of course comes with the relative lack of detail about how the Imperium...

    This is always the balance that real naval designers go through - should we? can we??. What you normally end up seeing is that smaller...

    Well, I suppose in theory, but when you build a ship of a type, adding in the physical locations is the way you'd get it off the...
