Re: Thoughts on FT

>Can anybody tell me why scatterguns are just so much better than
>submunitions packs?

Scatterguns do 1d6 DAMAGE per attack with no to-hit roll
Sub-Packs do 1 point on a 4-5 and 2 points on a 6
Scatterguns may target fighters, destroying a number of fighters 
equal to the die roll.
Scatterguns are turretted.

A Light Cruiser with 11 Scatterguns will average 40 or so points on 
an attack pass straight through the shields- enough to gut any ship 
in the game.

Yikes!
