I've only just rejoined DS after a couple months away, and I was wondering at how the loadout of the Destroyers had changed, as I seemed to have Fusion torpedos in place of Sabots for a combat destroyer I use. Yet, when I go to check the Database...nothing. The Database is trashed- there are entire sections missing from it,yet there are still links to the nonexistent sections!. I know most people don't read the Database, but its annoying when I want to look up differences in weapons loadouts between factions, and the section on the specific faction isn't even there anymore! There's next to nothing on any of the ships too!
Also, there are a lot of grammatical errors (IE "Typo's" in the info that remains) too...
In short, could someone please review the Database and all related documents and make sure they are as up to date as possible, and grammatically clear as well?
Also, why are there no Descriptions of what the Ally Enhancements DO anywhere? shouldn't THAT be in the Database as well?

the database is a "in work"-document, written from scratch

It is primarily being edited and managed by Eledore, who's first language is not English. As already stated, it is a work in progress and contains a lot of data that was not previously available to the community. It is meant as a supplementary document to the Manual, not a replacement and is by no means complete or comprehensive.

well, certainly would be nice...and I'm wondering: do combat Dessies truly mount fusion torps now, or was that just a glitched out load out counter?

against crusiers (sometimes crusiers if the desssie is good or the crusier is bad) and up yes. Dessies and down no cause the chance of a torp hitting anything smaller than a dessie is very low. Though if they do it its going to hurt
