I was actually trying to point out that you cannot just "slap" a weapon on the deck of a ship and have it work flawlessly for some of our GMs who aren't veterans or "weapons savvy." In my opinion, this is the MOST OVERLOOKED aspect of ALL WEAPON SYSTEMS. The differences in any system's Control/Guidance, Stabilization, and Target Aquisition can significantly affect performance. I would like to see this modeled more in the game. As a "for instance," what is the real difference between the T55's original Stadiameteric Ranging sight and the newer Volna Fire Contol System (other than the 4 second reduction in fire time)?
