Imagine there's no Talisman, it isn't hard to do

Master Computers are costly

Only on small ships. On Crusier through Battleship, C&C costs 2500 minerals. MC costs 4000 minerals, and some irrelevant amount of organics and rads (irrelevant because they do not affect build times at all, except possibly with certain Organic Man. ship designs). So, using the MC really only costs you 1500 minerals and some piddly orgs and rads more. It is not that expensive, and often doesn't even increase the build time! Now, the things you stick in that extra space might, but that is another issue.

With DNs and BSs, you lose even less by using MCs.

I think with the WMG you have a minimum to hit of 31%, so you might not even need all those modifiers.

I beleive that was changed in either 1.41 or 1.49, so that the weapon bonuses are applied before the 1% or 99% caps. Before, they were applied after, so you can get things like 31% minimum to hit. But now, it is applied before the cap, so there is no longer any extra minimums there.
