Have to sleep on this some more.. Hitman does need some work...and mediums need more EMPs.

but main weapons starting to look like the Swashbuckler.. even though the Swashbuckler is lacking PUs if the shield is on, it the only medium with a shield larger then shield1... is that right?

[Thorgrim]

Was looking at the Swashbuckler but the power problem made me design this one. Its problem is precisely having too large a shield.
That's also another reason why I posted a 2nd version of the Terminator with the original shield 2.

[Sleeping_Dragon]

I think I'm going to change the Swashbuckler.

Swashbuckler: -1scan, -1flare, -1ECM, +1 engine

That will cover any potential problems with the AI and the PU shortage, while the decreases in the other electronics suck, there are no 'big' jumps in the decreases..

Am currently looking for a place to put a shield2 in the mediums...Maybe the Scarab.. -1LS,-1flare, +1 shield... engine can handle it

Ninja: move the scanner to the CBT to keep it out of the way of EMPs, meson guns, and exploding GME ammo?

Hate to do it, but the Ninja replaces the Hitman[:(]

Phantom does a better job of what the Hitman's primary mode of attack should be. (LR sniping) and after 'fixing' the Hitmans heat problems it was just... blah. Needed the EMP also. Swashbuckler/Ninja similarities still a little bothering for my database, but with the electronic difference I can live with it.

Could use another BRG in mediums, unless I missed one. (Highlander and Instigator are it?)

[Thorgrim]

Actually there was a reason for me not to put the scanner in the CBT. Tonnage allocation in the chassis. Though weight balance has no influence in the game, I just kinda like having things balanced.
