So, if you were doing a ground-up redesign, what would you do ? Back of the envelope, under high guard, at tl15, with a 100dton hull, you can go J4, M4, and have room for 2 staterooms, and a turret, and that's about it. J4, 2G, 2 staterooms, and a turret, leaves you maybe 6 dtons. Dan -- "Any sufficiently advanced parody is indistinguishable from a genuine kook." -Alan Morgan
