The same shortage of capable pilots comes into play here too. :P

Hah! I've successfully nanned an SB to base destruction not just once, but both times I've had a chance to try it! :D

Seriously, though, Belt SBs with SF support for entry, setup, and bombrun are nigh unstoppable.

I wasn't talking about the players inability to point a nan at an sb. I was talking about PUG stratagy capablities in people figuring out they should be naning sbs.

I just think it seems silly that SFs would be able to use Gats, but that it would be a consistently poor choice. At 200 ammo, it's a bad idea. At 400 ammo, it's an interesting compromise between Utl and sniper. You're still sufficiently short on ammo that you're likely to run out/reload in even a short fight. Yes, you can bring plenty of ammo, but missiles are quite a tradeoff in a SF.

My preference is to make SF and Adv SF ammo 400, or thereabout, but otherwise I recommend removing their ability to mount gatts.

This sounds good. The ability to use gats on a SF is not that awesome, but it fits belters well.

I traced the URL and it is a PHP script that randomly chooses a picture each time it is accessed.
