What main weapons do you choose as Earth alliance. I mainly use Heavy and medium Lasers, they are definatly worth having to research physics 2. they seem to be the best weapons EA can get even though the heavy laser has a reload rate of 4! they are better than the Laser/pulse array you get for EA once you have advanced laser weapons as you can fit two HL's in the space of one Heavy L/P array, this sort of cancels out the L/p having a reload rate of 3 compared to the HL's 4. I think The L/pP array needs to be improved, maby more range or take less space, it seems to have a big penelty allready with the high maintanance cost. Is isn't really woth researching laser and pulse weapons and then advanced laser weapons when u get to level 7 in lasers.

About Val's point on fighters having too good a weapons, this is definatly shown when researching partical weapons as EA as at level 1 PW's at the start of the game all the Particle weapons you can get one go 1 space, except for one weapon.... The uni-pulse cannon which can go 2 spaces, and guess what! This is a fighter weapon !!!!! The first partical weapons you can get allow fighters to shoot further than ships !!!!!
