Actually, damage mods boost only one category of weapon (hybrid, laser, projectile or missile). Some ships can fully benefit from them, like Zealots, Apocalypse or Taranis, while others, like Rupture, Typhoon and Sacrilege, can't.
What about modules that would give Damage and Rof bonus to a kind of gun and missiles at the same time? Of course, the bonus given would need to be less effective that equivalent heat sinks or gyrostabs...
For example, for the projectile/missile T2 version:
7.5% Rof for missiles and projectiles
7% damage modifier to missiles and projectiles
same requirments than Gyrostabs II
needing the same skills that allow you to use Gyros II and Ballistic control II

"Actually" doesn't mean "actuellement" -- thought you might wanna know that.
As for your idea, well, I don't think it's bad, but you can be sure it'll never be implemented. |

I think it would un-balance the game too much, and just be complicating (imagine the market). Could work, but probably best to leave it out.

Why would it unbalance the game? It would make some ships more usefull than before, but the numbers can be tweaked (what I proposed was just a raw idea), and you're not going to see uber gank versions of Typhoons, because of missile's flight time.

not all ships are made to deal dmg. each one is built for a role.

why dont they add drone damage mods too and missiles and drone range mods like tracking computers for guns 
After all why should ships like the dominix not get any damage mods for its main wepon when all others do

Apocs nor Armageddons get dmg mods for its main weapon, what are you talking about?

Because some ships like the Arma are turret only so benefit more from turret damage mods than other ships like the Typhoon which are 4/4 so need to use twice as many slots to get same bonus from damage mods because of their slot layout

I like to think that it's the setup that define the role, not the ship.

The Typhoon is one of the most Versatile Tier I battleships in the game because of its 4/4 configuration. The Arma because of its turret only hardpoint allocation is equally vulnerable.
I under stand you point, and at a glance it does appear unbalanced. But it isn't, the cost of versatility is often high but so are the reward.

Yarr, i suggested this about a month back. would make typhoon more useful.

I am of the opinion that versatility is its own reward.
If you want an all-out stacked damage dealer then fly one. If you want a ship that gives you more option in combat, then you can do that too. Just don't expect to have flexibility and uber-damage.
