You only swich over to catapults when you have so many missiles you can't start lugging around too much cold gas. That's fort eh really big ships with on bord reloads and actual ELS tubes.

Let's face it, if your going to build a big arse intergalactic warship, you may as well give it the biggest guns you've got.

there is a massive difference between big guns and uber guns. take the front of a 304 and turn it to a big ass railgun: fine. give it a dozen more APBW's:fanwank.
get it? so ofcourse you can add in BIG guns, as long as it doesnt become impossible. and it has to remain economical.
304 nukes are multi gigaton

ok, i've had this on the virtual fleet already, and i haven't had anybody take notice. so i need a bit of help with how to expand the left wing of my dreadnough. so far it could be a cruiser, so im guessing that the whole ship is gonna be kick ass.
there are 8 plasma cannons, 13 20mm rail guns and four plasm beam projectors so far. (they're the tubes at the front)
