If you¦d want a perfect balancing of Webbifiers, you¦d need 2 properties for Engines/Webbifiers that are modified when activating a webbifier:
1. Size of disrupted Space
2. Strenght of the disruption
You can compare that vaguely to the grip of a tire and number of tires of a vehicle.
Small compact engines would have more "grip" and get less affected by BS-webbers.
Frigate sized webbers would have problems generating a "large enough" disruption to affect large propulsion systems of BSs.
The actual maxspeedreduction and agility of the target could be calculated out of those 2 valuemodifications.
But I¦m too lazy here to explain the details, since posts like mine usualy just drown in the sheer flood of threads the bigger common part of the Forum-community creates anyway.

Why not?
You are suggesting the exact opposite. Frigate-sized webbers should webb a BS down to 25% speed while BS sized webbers reduce the speed to just 75%.
Especialy the usefullness of the BS-sized webbers you introduced is questionable. While the operate at your suggested range, they in addition have an effect that is quiet questionable in the usefullness compared to other modules, while being relatively useless in most situations you encounter during PvP.
Imho this approach of mine offered an alternative to your balancingattempt using the range of the different sized modules. I did not say your approach to the matter is wrong, but I¦m simply convinced that the way you try to balance things is strongly depenadant on the PvP phylosophy you try to realize when making a game.
Scissor-Stone-Paper or everything about equaly strong? There are so many things how things can be managed that it is hard to foresee what effects changes have in the long-term-development of PvP-behavior of the community.

so where exactly do you see the problem in having BS-sized webbers have more or maybe qual effect on BS than Frig-sized webbers have?
Why should a BS sized webber webb a BS just down to 75% speed? Having less effect on Frigs is fine for me, but why make them that weak against BS also?

1.Because they have increased range, and short range battleships would be scrwed otherwise.
2.And they need increased range because if they didnt have it there would be no reason to fit bs webbers over frigate webbers.
1.Well, usualy the closerange-BS have webbers themselves. 40km is the limitrange where closerange and longrange meet.
2. Thats the reason why imho BS webber should be superior when webbing a BS over the Frigatewebbers.
