G'day Glen,

I prefer magazines in place of racks becuase it usually takes a couple
of
waves (for me) to kill so use the space (thus racks = wasted space). I
usually hust go for having them on all my ships (and then having
small-large ships in the fleet) rather than on one mega-ship as a lucky
shot/concentrated fire can't remove them all in one go. 

The first few time you use them I'd also put your spread down netlike
(so
if you guess wrong hopefully they won't all miss), once you've got the
hang
of them you can put them in clumps for bigger effects.

Cheers

Beth
