Weapons range is incredible!

from Sins Forums
From looking at those Kol Battleships , the range of weapons fire is very long which is very realistic. Great to see!

That looks like the Kols main guns, which seem only forward mounted, maybe the ship was designed that way, to stop the Vasari and Advent getting too close?

keep your distance and keep blasting, sounds like a perfectly valid tactic to me.

although I want close combat to still be viable as a strategy.

The ship might be using a special skill we havent had any updates on those yet.

I have to applaud Ironclads decision to make effective weapon ranges of 20+ kilometers on capital ships. I just want to say that the longer the weapon ranges, the happier I will be. Of course, these ranges are no where near those of real life weapons. Still, it beats the point blank ranges found in most space combat games. Also, I get that Ironclad needed to have fleets close enough to make battles fun and look good.

As for Spinal Mounted Weapons, I believe that I've read that the TEC Dreadnought is so equipped. There may be others.
