Which I buffed... so I guess I'll buff it more later on when I get a chance to do so.

Only the Depredation has problems with turnarate, though. The rest are fine. Also, teamcolors. Your ships. Are full of. Teamcolors.
And the weapons on Depredation and Convolution get blown off too easily, but the ones on the bigger ships are fine now.
Also, fighters are underowered (firepower, not agility or any of that stuff)

The team colors are the first three color pallettes and it's bad because it changes the color while in game.

No I mean Flak, Particle Gun or Point Defense Beam
EDIT: BTW how did you manage to get Point Defense working? My Meta2 Fighterbay client made PD turrets useless.

PD turrets work, but only against kinetic weapons such as missiles.
Also, PD rockets are now absolutely useless.

What I'm using is a pair of modified flak guns, but only on the larger ships. The smaller ones have no PD.
And now I'm gonna get off my fat ass and fix those ships like I said I was gonna do days ago.
Edit: Figured I might as well post my PD stats, since they seem to be well-received.

I took the liberty of adding your PD stats to the LW spreadsheet. You also missed some teamcolors.
As for the buffs, I approve. I consider them balanced now.
One more thing you should probably do, after which I shall consider them perfectly balanced: Add a single backwards facing light red laser on Inundation and Conflagaration (or two tiny, depending on what looks better). That should protect their backs somewhat while still not giving them any ridiculous backwards firepower.

Wait, your carrier's fighterbay have an energy regen of 1, this means destroyed fighters can be rebuilt.
Is this okay or not in DGW?
