Default Re: Beams v Missiles

I haven't gotten that far in my game yet, so I may not be the 'late' as you describe it. I also play stock games more than I play against Human players(there's never enough time to do the fun stuff). (I sorta have an affinity for fighters, those one-man ships fighting to win and survive.) But I understand what you're saying, and I'll keep your comments in mind, if and when I do get time to play that far.
Maybe, making PDC a little less accurate could be put into SEV, which could make fighters important again for everyone!

Thanks for the input,
Aris

Quite a few mods address the problems with fighters and missiles in stock SE4 and make them actually be useful. You would be surprised what making PDC actually be a balanced device can do.
