Re: massive shield depleter
Don't picture the AI races for balance- picture a human player. APB, Wave Motion Gun.. engage at max range. Max range on the APB is 8. That means against a fully defended opponent (ECM, stealth armor) with combat sensor III, you have about NIL chance to hit.
+65% (CSIII)
-60% (ECMIII)
-15% (stealth armor)
-15% (scattering armor)
= -25%. Since range 8 = 20% chance to hit and SE4 rounds, you have a 1% chance to hit. Compare this to the Talisman player, who hits EVERY time.
The WMG is better of since it has an inherent 30% bonus. And of course you must hold the range open.
