Yup. Giga ints need to be a tad bigger.

While head on they are a bit difficult to hit, the rest of their body is massive. Also they have weak hull so it balances pretty well.

I don't think I've ever heard any semi competent pilot complain that giga ints are too thin.

Giga ints are too thin! You also used to be able to park a giga int between the giga int gunmounts, thus giga ints had an odd balance of being hard to hit and hard to hit anything with.

Giga ints are easy to deal with. They are flat, so you must attempt to catch them in a vertically positioned vector so your guns hit flat with the top/bottom of the ship, or you get up in their face and out-damage them because their hull sucks and their gun damage is average.

People forget that thin ints are not only thin in a head to head - if the pilot is moderately competent at rolling, while evading an attempt to be closed down and engaged, they will line up their thin profile with the attacker.

Giga ints will only have 1 minigun in future releases. Hvy ints 2. Thus the lxy ints (which will retain 3 guns) will have a noticeable advantage over hvy ints.

Rix ints will no longer mount minigun. EMP only.
