Default Re: POLL - Are some weapons techs too cheap

They are too expensive to research for the early game, yes, but not for the mid to late game. Especially on medium or larger maps...

APBs cost a lot less to build than PPBs. Phased shields easily make the shield skipping ability of the PPBs obselete. Just level 3 in phased shields is all you need to start getting powerful defense against PPBs. Such technology is not that hard to research in the mid game.
