====Projectile Turrets==== | ====Projectile Turrets==== | ||
Projectile Turrets don't use capacitor, leaving it free for Tanking and Utility modules. The downside is a lack of fast switching and relying on falloff to deal damage at range. Most ships use EMP ammo as it is the highest damage and projectile turrets have a massive falloff range. | |||
====Missiles==== | ====Missiles==== | ||
Missiles are at a slight disadvantage to gun based weapon systems due to flight time. Further most ships fit Heavy Missiles or larger, which are not suited for hitting frigates due to large explosion radius. The strength of missiles lies in their range compared to Vanguard gun fits. This allows missile boats to kill targets that are otherwise out of reach. Missile boats must be able to hit a target over 60km (over 70km preferred) for Vanguard fleets. This requires a III and a IV between [[Skills:Missiles#Missile_Projection|Missile Projection]] and [[Skills:Missiles#Missile_Bombardment|Missile Bombardment]]. Due to these factors Battlecruisers using missiles must fit Heavy Missile Launchers, if missiles are the hull's primary weapons system. Rapid Light Missile Launchers are acceptable as a secondary system, due to being geared towards frigates. | Missiles are at a slight disadvantage to gun based weapon systems due to flight time.
