Re: Vehicle Design Philosophy

If you're giving their weaponry class 5 strength at size 4, you'd better
be 
tweaking the point system when you get to DSII, otherwise things are
going 
to be VERY unbalanced.	That was one of the gripes that led me to leave
the 
Fold of the Faithful when it came to Battletech - they never really came
up 
with a really logical fair way to balance the Inner Sphere vs. the Clan 
technology disparity.  I don't mind being outgunned by the aliens, but
if I 
found myself ready to play a game and discovered that not only did the
KV 
player get to use nastier weaponry than mine, but he paid the same or
less 
to build it, I'd be screaming bloody murder. There's nothing fun about 
playing lopsided massacres.

My "KV advanced tech"
railgun for my class 5 MBT is a class 5 railgun sized as a class 4. That
gives them a size advantage. <Haven't translated these to DS2 yet>.
