RE: Sa'Vasku

AMEN brother, believe me, having the Sa'Vasku
allocation all power to thier stingers and out
shooting you is no fun.  Almost impossible to
beat......almost.  I find this is much more of a
problem with custom ships then the ones out of FB2. 
The ones out of the book are actually a blast to play,
especially against Kra'Vak.  Custom ships....well, it
doesn't take a brainiac to figure out the best tactic
is a massive amount of power and a few stingers.

I think that these changes go a good way toward better
balancing things.
