^^ No! There is no big difference. May be you can estimate a little more precise and got one Fighter Flight on top if you take a smaler skirmish ship than your opposer - hey...
Unbalacing comes into being from the various Fleetspecialrules that make that some ships act perfekt together and others do not.
Pointsystems got the same probs. The Model itself got a Pointscore that fits, but in combination with Model"x" it is mutch to cheap and so one...
I play 40K, BFG and Aeronautica to, they all have the same probs.
May be some ships in B5 ACTA are cheaper Battleships and others are a little more expensive for a Battleship - and whats the heck?
You also have to roll the Dice and to fulfilling your Mission with your own tactics and a little luky hand :wink:
- I know only one exactly balancing Game on Earth - chess :!: -
example
Game BFG
Imperial Kolossus Cruiser 180 Pt
IMS Battlecruiser 425 Pt
The ISM Battlecruiser is an big warship with hull 6. The Waepons are needing to fly close to to enemy and the ship must be in the right position to use all of them for best result.
The Kolossus is only a Cruiser armed with Laserlaces that works like mini-beams. For 180 Pt each, you got two of them against the Battleship and this two ignore the Hull 6 from the Battleship complet and strike it doun with no problems.
Eldar Aurora light cruiser 140 Pt
The Eldar got a holofield that gives him a 2+ safe against all hits from the Kolossus minibeam Lances

....
example 2
Game B5 ACTA
Two ISA Fleets - both player got 2 White Stars and 2 Gunships...
One Player use all separate the other build squadrons :!:
Exact the same ships (PL or Pt) but not longer balaced :idea:
