Indeed, IRL the term battlecruiser came to be when someone though up the brilliant idea to take a regular cruiser and strap battleship cannons on it. Sure it slowed them down and made them more "Battleship minus armor" than "cruiser plus firepower" but...
Sounds interesting yeah. Maybe a new tier 3 BC for it?

You talk about firepower of a BS but limited armor because its a cruiser ..
But actually in EVE a bc is able to out-tank a BS. So i think when you modify the firepower you need to reduce the tankability while doing that ;)
I'm confused. Please explain how a BC can outtank a BS?
Probably by sacrificing every ounce of potential damage for tanking mods...
... nothing a 8-tach abby won't fix

Actually, the problem would be that was the original intention of BC's. When they were originally testing them before the Shiva patch back in the day BC's were using large racial weapons, granted in a reduced amount due to PG. Back then you'd have a ferox with 425 rails and cruise launchers. Only problem was the PG for the large weapons made it possible to have sick tanks.
You might wanna read the op. Nobody said anything about boosting the grid/cpu. Just giving it a bonus to the requirements of large guns, much like logistics cruisers have a bonus that allows them to fit large rr's. No sick tank here.
Yeah, give a new tier 3 BC with bonus to large racial weapon PG/CPU use instead of a damage mod.

Ah, you mean a freighter's worth of implants/T2 stuff.
