Hmmmm....
Although Capitol Ships are slightly faster in combat, the siege ships aren't keeping safe distance and get ripped to shreds.
Gotta play around with some stuff.
There was a problem with mounts several patches ago where the AI would not recognize the extended range granted by a mount. It would think that the 'default' range was the only range that the weapon had and not fire until the target got within the default range of the weapon. I had thought that was fixed, but you never know when some odd change might re-create an old bug.
