I do like the 2 mass launcher and 1 mass ammo per round myself. If I can
get
it to be aggreed in my group, it will be my standard light unit weapon
(very
effective when using fighter movement rules for the MT missiles). The
version above will be useful for the heavier units (capitols and the
like,
the ones with the mass), in giveng the units flexibility in either
heavier
salvos against PDS (SML`s), or range and trying to overwhelm the PDS
with
number of incoming (MT).

Just my opionion, subject to change in play <G>.
