there's been some noise lately about the weapon/armor balance vs comparable human ships. therefore, we're reducing kluth's armor to 1 full arc armor ala 480, all kluth weapons will be fore mounted only and consist entirely of short-range weapons like knives and beams, while at the same time increaseing the single-alpha damage to increase reliance on pinch and scuttle tactics.
now, before you go all calling for the devs to be broiled and served with a butter sauce and fettuchini (mmm...), we have been doing some internal testing and heavy number crunching, you can find a preliminary screenshot of the results byclicking here.
and as always, feedback's appreciated

Just a small FYI - all testing was done vs. the UGTO's EAD. So you can be sure it's fair.

It could crush a tank with those massive claws.

I'm not certain how serious I should take this thread.
But Kluth with knives would be great.
We could all be like "Surrender or we'll cut you old man!"
Good times.
