um... no, that's pretty doable. Each level of each ship type for each faction has a separate ship entry in ICE with its own field for fuel capacity. So it wouldn't be a problem to up the fuel of only GT starting figs an not effect anything else.

Not that I necessarily support such a change, just that it is quite feasible to make.

Maybe if you're going up against Rix you should listen to commander and defend miners? I dunno it just might work maybe.

For what it's worth the GT fig fuel make the opening "alleg in hard mode". Perversly, I enjoy it anyway, for the challenge.

Maybe GT should get free light booster at start?

I shall impart upon you secret ACS knowledge to succeeding vs. any faction as GT. This method has been passed down through many hands since 2006.

1. Defend your first op con and make sure it plants. Keep light defense on your home miner.
2. Defend your second and third miners until you get Ints.
3. Using the $#@!ing retarded amount of money you should have from defending for 10 minutes, push a palisade and outpost into enemy territory.
4. Buy a research.
5. ???????
6. Profit.

Numbers

Proxless SR: 27 acceleration, 160 top speed.
GT fig with 1 rack of MRM: 19 acceleration, 100 top speed, 200 with booster 1.

SR
0 to 125: 8s
0 to 160: 30s

Boosting GT fig
0 to 125: 5s
0 to 160: 8s (one full fuel can)

A SR entering an aleph at full speed comes out at 170.
