Quick feedback (chasing down bounties in Galatia): Having tiny pirate frigate fleets spamming interdiction pulse on me every time I try to sustain burn is... annoying. Considering these ships will constantly hound the player through an entire starsystem, what recourse do I have other than to try to catch them with emergency burn? Its taking me more supplies to catch them than to fight, and its forcing me to do boring mop up fights constantly. I'll see how this goes in later in.
On the plus side, I'm mostly digging the fighter balance. Talons are useful, but not overpowered, Thunders are nice though I haven't fought against them, and an enemy Mora with Gladius + Talons was very difficult on my frigates (but that let my slow D Hammerhead shine). Kopeshes are still very nice at 12 OP. My one gripe is that I haven't found a use for Piranhas - very small sample size of fights so far, but I would rate it as a 5 OP bomber rather than 10.
