JLC, I noticed you reversed Torpedos to stock-SE status
But as we all know, sE Torpedodes suck !!! There've been many discussions on the subject and AFAIK that was the consensus. No wonder PvK raised Torpedos damage.
If you think torpedoes are too strong, please give them to hit bonus. +10 to AMT and +15 to QT.
That will give a nice choice to human players and it complement hard-to-hit small ships nicely.
Basically, one will have a choice to weild a knife (APB for exmample) if confronted with a dog (large, easy to hit ship) or folded newpaper (low-damage, easy to hit AMT) if attacked by a swarm of mosquitos.
I would also like +10 to-hit to enveloping acid globule. All other racial big hitters have bonuses - high-energy magnifier, tachion cannon and mental singularity projector. Why not EAG ? It is not like it has extarordinaly characteristics. Far from that, TC is better even before to-hit bonus !
