L ammo is hardly a VW. 0.025m3 is 25 liters. that's less than half a human. what 1400mm shoots are disks (1.53m3 area, up to 16cm thick, depending on propellant ratio), face forward. SPLAT! :)
edit: flying pancake comes to mind :D
Time to whip out my favorite picture again! This is a real 800mm shell. 1400mm or 3500mm would be significantly larger. My favorite theory for why they only take .025m3 is that they come dehydrated. Just add water before firing:
Wow, reminds me of my knob...

I'm using EFT with the "all skills to V" option. And you're proving my point, you need to sacrifice two lows or two rig slots to fit guns, when every other race's ships can fit their biggest guns without that kind of penalty. Also I'm fairly sure an apoc required 3x PDU II's to fit a full 8 tachyon II's.
hint.. game is abalanced on PVP .. not PVE. Tachyones are the most powerful sub capital weapons on game.. SPECIALLY when tied to apocalypses.

Someone please explain to me the logic / balance behind these turrets requiring such massive amounts of power grid that you can't fit a full rack on a battleship, even with multiple PDU's. And then when you finally slap enough PDU's you realize two things, you still lack enough grid for a large rep and your fit is total fail regardless. I played around with all the other races / ships and their biggest power grid weapons and none of them run into the problem of lacking power grid. Like honestly it's bad enough lasers need to suck the living **** out of your ships capacitor but apparently I can't even fit 8 cap sucking behemoths. What gives?
Oh this again, please search the forums with "tachyon" and "Oversized" you will find out that CCP has said that these are oversized battleship weapons (a size above 1400's and/or 425's). Write up a simple spreadsheet listing weapon damage multipliers, dps, and fittings for each gun type, you'll see that megabeams are the equivalent weapon to 1400s/425s, Tach's are and remain in a "league of their own". This way when the next peoson asks this, you can be one of the first to answer them.

well - Tachs is an option to fit oversized guns in return for bigger fitting reqs... Dont use them if you dont want to sacrifice.

The other races weapons dont require as much PG, sure but their ships also have much less PG - try fitting a hyperion with 8 neutron blasters, and active rep, mwd (because UNLIKE amarr ships gall need to get close to be effective), heavy cap injector........
