Now then, firstly I am back now the spam has gone and my works filter isn't having moments about russian wives etc. .
secondly, despite my misgivings and sadness at how things have been going with ACTA, I am playing a game on Saturday, and it's looking like Abbai V Brakiri, 5 war points. Now, My Brakiri fleet choice does Not contain a Brivoki, but I reckon my Mates Abbai Will, and Why not, it's a beast of a ship. But there have been frequent comments that the brakiri version is better than the abbai version based upon the fighters.
now then, Firstly, I don't personally care a great deal, the ship itself is a superb piece of kit, excelent weapons, shields, all round powerful secondaries, and the fighters are really neither here nor there. BUT for those of you who have commented on this, what would be the best way to fix it.
Now the brakiri pikatos comes 6 to a wing, incidentally what the Brivoki carries, while the Kotha comes 8 to a wing, so would a simple fix be to give it 8 Kotha?
Alternatively, It has a complex Abbai Shield system. Would the Brakiri have the know how to keep one working, would a way to balance this ship be to drop the recharge to 1D6 to show a lack of Brakiri understanding. Or even further, strip it's Shields and put in interceptors? in this instance i think that the Shield is powerful enough that it is way way superior to interceptors, so would possibly unbalance it the other way.
What do you folks think. As I stated The Ships power is not from it's fighters, and I don't believe it really needs them anyway, but it has them, and it's a sore point with some players, so fill your boots and explain how you would fix this in all fairness, reasonably small inbalance.
