Most of you know my (rather strong) opinions on the Centauri fleet and their weapons fit. I fully intend to write up a set of "house rule" stats for the Centauri Royal Navy, sans the battle lasers we never see on screen.
However, a few ships in the fleet either need a beam weapon or since they were devised by AoG have no purpose without one, so I propose to retain the plasma stream as a short-ranged but powerful beam on a few ships classes. Namely the Morgrath frigate, the Octurion battleship and probably the Liati cruiser. The Adira can keep the Drakh nuetron beam, since it's alien tech used without Emperor Mollari's knowledge.
Does anyone have any reccomendations or suggestions on how to proceed with this? I intend to remove the beams from the Primus altogether and replace it, Nova-style, with a single weapon system, heavy ion cannons, in every arc. I'll hand out plasma accelerators like party favours in place of matter cannons on new designs and just generally tidy things up.
If anyone has anything to add, suggest, propose or interject, please do so now.
