Ok Jack, appears that Fyron is agreeing with you in this case. Since both of you are of the opinion that a simple fix is to change the description of the component.

This horse is dead, we are making glue.

Ah, so you responded in a different thread, and expected me to follow your jump? Strange. Ah well, at least we agree on a possible solution. That works for me.

Hmm, I see Geo posted before I could respond. Ah well.

So. Back to the original subject.

If one is simply cutting out anything above Frigate or Destroyer size, that means much of stellar manipulation will be gone, too.

As well, the Ship Construction tech would need to be rebalanced to reflect the shorter track it's on, and the relatively-larger impact a single level of it can have on a game. Base construction too, since you don't really want 1500kT bases facing fleets of 200kT-300kT ships ... or do you?

I think he did want 1500 (and 2500) kT bases against 200 kT ships. It might not be that great of and idea though.

Then you should extend the same courtesy to others and take the current discussion elsewhere as well. It certainly is not what I started this thread to discuss.

Also, to whomever changed the title of my post: that was very crass.

Slick, you never made a request to move the discussion. That is the difference here. Had you requested it, I would have happily obliged. Topic drift is the norm, you know.
