A Retribution GravCannon in the hands of a child

[Sinocelt]

One advantage of not playing through Steam, I suddenly realized, is that I could back up my captain if I wanted to try stuff that didn't fit my current build. And so, I got to install two Retribution GravCannons on my Galtak Freighter.

The first battle was a massacre. With a couple dedicated talents, I closed in fast (since the RGC cannot fire at distance 4 or 5), then in one turn the Juror pirate ship was reduced to less than 200 Bulk Points.

The second battle too was a massacre. My opponent knew how to weave through my haymakers, so I quickly died.

I see that if I wanted to make this build work, I should ...
 1) Invest more in Pilots and Gunners, and select their talents more carefully.
 2) Add some armored bulkheads (I had four medical bays* I could have replaced, not to mention the luxury suite).
The Galtack Freighter is a good choice for that build, though, because of its five Large compartments.

I was curious to see if a couple Retribution GravCannons wouldn't simply make any fight too easy. They don't. Kudos to Andrew and Cory.

Sinocelt - awesome to hear! We're still balancing all the weapons and masses and things, and we may be changing some of the compartments sizes for some of these weapons to make them even more powerful / different.

Thanks for the feedback
