Eliminate broadside.

I feel they just don't have a place in game, they aren't that different from regular lasers, and regular laser can fire 360 degrees.
And they require positioning like missiles, yet are controlled by nav and not weps.

In addition, this desire to keep the side of the ship always facing the enemy during the battle makes it next to impossible to use missiles.


On another totally different note, perhaps we could explore the creation of a defence tier.

They do, otherwise BCs would just constantly be ramming in to eachother.
There is some strat on when to turn for yamato/missiles for the burst then back to DPS with broadsides
That was the point since the VERY beginning and it has worked out well

Broads are important just to give variety as to the kinds of decisions that can be made during combat.
