This is a very simple request. Nothing to major. Nothing game breaking.
All I want is the turrets and missile bays to LOOK bigger to fit the ships.
Right now turrets on a battleship look like toys. Seriously they are soooooo small.
Battleships are suppose to have huge guns or atleast 5x the size they are now.
I dont want changes in volume or anything I just want them to LOOK right. |

Consdering that the ships are hundres of meters in length/width, the turrets seem about right to me. They should be tens of meters firing meter long projectiles.
Look at the guns on a Revelation [1], those are pretty massive. And then look at the Crusader [2], you can't make the turrets any bigger or they'd be bigger than the ship they're fitted on.

I never mentioned frigate or deadnaught here... I said specifically the Battleship! Also battlecruiser and maybe even the cruiser. These need size modifications.
As you said the Frigate and Dead look fine. In fact I laugh at my frigate because it is basically just a bunch or turrets flying in space. But I love it anyway.
The biggest problem is again the battleship down to cruiser that need size changes. |

The guns aren't small, the ships are big.
Battleships would look ridiculous if they had guns nearly a quarter of a kilometer long. |

All I suddenly imagined was flailing ship arms........ |

The ships are fine... if anything I think it would make more sense to make them a little bigger. In the novels it says a frigate can house a group of about 4-5 with living areas and such. Almost the same as the Serenity from Firefly.
I really do think the turrets need to be bigger. They look ridiculous as they are. |

I really do think the turrets need to be bigger. They look ridiculous as they are. most of the frigates are somewhere between the size of a 747 (rifter) and the size of a small office building (look at the maulis, or navatas) I think you could house 5 people in there comfortably. |

You are mostly right. I go to this video as a guide. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=evD5xqIHLmI
The problem is the turrets on larger craft look horrible! |

The problem is the turrets on larger craft look horrible! Let's have less exclamation points please. Converting a statement of opinion into an exclamation does not make it any more valid.

Turrets look fine. Make them any larger, especially on BS, and they would look silly and cartoonish. |
