Thanks for the pointer to the hull size thread: good stuff.  Derk 
Groeneveld comment's re watching over systems with smaller vessels is 
cruical as are David Griffin comments re small ships getting out of the 
way.  Interestingly, this matches with Age-of-sail uses of cruiser where

communication/travel seems very similar, as well as the "honourable"
tactic 
of not firing on low-rate ships unless they're threatening you.
Whilst there appears to be an issue given the hull size costs, in that 
bigger ships seem to pay less _proportionally_ per weapon system than 
smaller ships*, there is also an issue with the weapons costs/damage 
themselves: is there any other "stuff" on the comparative weapons costs,

especially as regards smaller ships?
*(e.g. assume a B3-2arc of 5 MASS and 15 points: the actual NPV cost for

being able to fit that weapon is 5 PLUS the 15 cost of weapon consuming 
that space (20 pts)).
Have fun, Tim Bancroft
