Default Re: Any interest in an Eclipse Mod game at PBW?

The base mounts handle all the needs of bases so I saw no need for specialty mounts on bases.

Effecient Mount reduces supply usage. Bases have no supply. Ranged and Accurate Mount arent needed because base mounts already increase range and accuracy. Burst Mount reduces range and increases power. Not a good strategy for an immobile base. The sheer size of a base mount negates the need for Armored mountings. The reduced mounts are also unnecessary.

As a side note, the mounts for Satellites and Weapon Platforms have been changed so you will usually have only one strong weapon per platform\satellite. Maybe two or three on large ones. This way during tactical combat it takes less time for planets and satellites to finish firing weapons. I always hated waiting for a long time while sats and planets fire several hundred shots. Now its one per unit.
