Please make it so that a ship's bonuses to weapons apply to all guns of the appropriate size AND SMALLER
Thus, a battleship fitting medium weapons would still receive the damage/rate of fire/etc bonuses that a large does.

I agree. but nerf one side of that. make it work all gun types or work same gun type but that and smaller.

Parts of me likes this idea but it could also rend battlecruisers and their ilk fairly useless, a battleship fitted with cruiser guns would tank harder and act just as well if not better for antisupport roles as the battlecrusier it self. |

Let me put it this way. Frigate combat normally takes place in the 0km to 30km range. Battleship range is 5km to +200km. Once you get inside the envelope of engagement range of a battleship, slow tracking on battleship class turrets and sig radius falloff on missiles keep said frigate alive with a behemoth of a ship which should be able to swat the frigate like a fly. Currently it is possible to fit a battleship with frigate sized weapons, and they'll beat the living crap out of said frigate unless the frigate pilot does some awful fancy flying, and exploits his weapon bonuses to the max. All the sudden the range bonus a frigate gets to its weapons systems is the difference of life and death. He's still not going to ever "take" the battleship. But he can harass them with near impunity thanks to the battleship not having bonuses. Now, if you add in bonuses to to frigate sized weapons to a battleship, that suddenly changes. A battleship can easily kill a frigate 100% of the time. It starts to make sense to bring a couple of anti-frigate battleship platforms to kill tacklers, instead of bringing true anti-frigate ships.
This change would render CLASSES, of ships obsolete. Not hulls, not roles, entire ship classes.
