Hmm, it's an interesting idea, idk, if I do add more tankers I'll probably just make a small utility ship that happens to have some fuel capacity.
So if you take the temporal field and just make it really short and powerful it becomes reaaal good.
Hym, maybe you can make something different, maybe something like this:
"Marksman training" "Extensively trained since childhood in situational awareness and intuitive shooting, Green Knight fire control officers are adepts at finding the right target and hitting it even against the odds. On direct neurointerface control their score against moving targets is significantly above average an in numerous occasions they managed to score hits at ranges that exceed official weapon specifications. Unfortunately they are unable to use any targeting aids, as this actually results in decreased performane".
Target leading improvement, small range improvement (~5% maybe), maybe lower ROF with lowered recoil to simulate gunners doing short pauses to decrease recoil. Not compatible with targeting upgrades and point defense AI.
i'm disappointed that only a single piece of each new split continued the chain reaction.
Well, this way it looks like that's the piece with the dimensional engine in it, kinda cool. But probably not keeping this.
I like the idea of the no witnesses, especially since relays and stuff only work so far out (like the range you get bounty payments and event updates) so it'd be nice if you could make a habit of tailing scavengers or stuff until they're out of range of the core worlds then pouncing. It'd be a fringe mechanic and maybe not the most applicable to all play styles, but it would be neat if it was a feasible change.
