I feel that the Appro-Light Scholar (S) needs some adjustments with the weapon arcs. Appro-Light Scholar (Cruiser) is one of my favorite ships of the mod, a fast cruiser with a lot firepower but weak defenses and a somewhat limited OP number. When I bought the Battleship model I thought I was getting an upgrade but the weapon arcs on it are off. The two newer big energy ports are on the side and the mediums are also not facing directly forward with just some small overlap. Sure it has a big missile port on the front but that is just the same as the Cruiser which had those lovely torpedoes.
I haven't tried the other BCs yet (like the Originem that looks very similar) but the Scholar feels like a very different type of ship, one that you would equip with PDs and not with firepower.
