Subject: HH Ideas for FT
1. HH ship weapons are, mostly, broadside because of the constraints to ship design. This would mean installing batteries with only one firing arc. 2. Make Chase Armament only usable in the front or rear 60 degrees. (I'd like to say 30 degrees, but would the be from 11:30 to 12:30 for forward. Not very easy to get accurate bearings trying to split the hour marks on mini bases.) Broadsides fire through 120 degrees port or starboard. 3. Chase Armament shoud be limited in numbers. a Heavy Cruiser (HMS Nike) has only _ Grasers, _ Lasers, and _ Torp Tubes Chase, but has _ Grasers, _ Lasers, and _ Torp Tubes Broadside.
