After re-reading my own post I realized the way I worded the options was
confusing. In 2 and 3, I meant that there are negative modifiers to the
to-hit rolls from A batteries when fired AGAINST cruiser and escort
class ships. As I wrote it, one could think I meant when mounted on such
ships.

In my continuing quest to degrade the potency of cap ships I wonder if
anyone has tried any of the following modifications to the rules and, if
so, how did they go?
1)	Allow A Bats to only fire every OTHER turn.
2)	Give a -1 to all to hit roles from A bats on cruiser class ships
and -2 on escort class ships.
3)	Give a -1 to all hit roles from B bats on escort class ships.
4)	Allow Pulse Torps to only fire every other (or third) turn.
5)	Nova Cannons can only fire every third turn (still use the
regular charging rules).

I think these mods put the weapons in a bit better perspective
vis-à-vis their intended (designed for) targets.
Thanks,
Paul
