I think artillery role needs to be not only balanced but perhaps completely rethought. Alphaganks are obsolete, and maybe they should be... but there could still be a fleet/sniper role for a large salvo / low tracking / lowish ROF platform.
I wonder if a possible solution could be adjusting the damtype spread of the various Proj ammos..? I realize that's a nontrivial thing to suggest, but there's a great deal of flexibility in there to tune exactly what kind of shield/armor damage you're dealing compared to range bonuses / penalties. Tuning damtype spread and range bon/pen could do a lot.

You cant fit 6x T2 1400s on a Tempest. That screams Broken.
Then you need 2x Sensor boosters to lock as far as the tremor can hit, and another two tracking enhancers/Comps to hit about 140 optimal. Then if you want Gyros ontop of that, along with a fitting mod, well you have no tank, and the tracking is entirely awful with Tremor, only able to hit stationary battleships.
this and then some.
don't think the mechanics can be fixed until a role for them is settled on. what's arty FOR? once that's decided, the needed changes will be clearer.

CCP needs to go nuts on these.

What MINMATARS need, its alpha! 
your newsletter, i will subscribe
opinion, thread-watchers: is this specific enough (current alpha values are useless vs. current ship stats, boost arty alpha) to warrant its own thread, or should we continue to show support here (help arty in some as yet unspecified way)?
