When I say a lot of clicking I'm not kidding. Currently it would take 250 LS components to balance out a SD using Destroyer-sized LS.

for grit, i am using standard size control components, and requiring 1 per 500KT or fraction thereof. it balances fairly well, i think DNs take 14 and baseships take 30 each of crew/life support.

Perhaps not a perfect solution for a HH mod... but resonable

The only problem with this is the really large size jump. It goes:

400
800
4000
6000
8000

it looks like you could either scale them to require one per 400, or one per 1000. you would need 20 of each for your 8000kt hull if you required 1/400, and sized the components appropriatly. thats not too much clicking, in my book. (especially since my starbases take 30 each, in GritTech..)

anyway, im working hard on getting Version 0.11 of GritTech out, which should fix alot of problems in the 0.1 pre-release (which you can download from the Grit-Tech thread, and take a look at, if you like).

In my case the answer to both would be "no".

Other than the cover art from the books, is there any reference material?
