Ah, good to find out that we can at least put mark 10 items in the older ship slots, that helps some without making the later ships not worth upgrading into.

I dunno why I had the notion that I could not put mark 10 for example in a heavy cruiser, good to know. I might have tried it in beta and it didnt work then and got it in my head, I cant remember how I got the idea that it wouldnt work. I shoulda just given it a try I guess.

It will be less efective, but I wanna have fun seeing what an older ship can get away with.

I'm going to end up seeing how well the Nova holds up... Such a pretty little ship...

I agree that it would be great if there was a tactical place for the smaller ships in the higher levels of the game.

Maybe if the death penalty was a cost to repair or replace the ship, it would encourage you to not always bring out the big guns.

not signfcigently so though,

using the defiant as an example. compared to a T5 fleet escort you're going to have 1 less reasr weapon (proably a turret)

and the defiant ISmore manuverable then the tier 5s (signfcigently so from my experiance) so I could definatly see folks sticking with their defiance at admiral it's not quite the "total upgrade" going from galaxy to soverign is

Im more worried about the loss of Bo abilities then I am turrets.

WOW Holy crap that thing is ugly, whoever designed it should be shot!!!

GAAAAAHHHH my EYES.

I'm BLIND
