Frustration (balance)

[Zarix]

The game balance could be better, but I don't think it is all wrong.

WMG loses when compared to APB when all the other ship components are same. But if WMG ship has more movement points than APB ship it can stay out of range when it is reloading its weapons. That way WMG has an advantage. That isn't very bad strategy because WMG has minimum accuracy of 30% and APB has 0%.

Also if it is clear that your ships are going to be destroyed, you can do more damage with WMG than with APB in that one combat turn your ships survive.

Almost all weapons in SE4 have some qualities that makes them useful in certain situations.
