Um, think I'll be skipping this event. If there's going to be missle restrictions, I prefer all out ban rather than the ambiguous "hey, that was a p3" "no it wasn't!" that will likely result. Besides, it really hobbles the YT, since its only got 2 tubes. That makes the advantage of the Nova/Deci way to big, since 3 p2s are still formidable.
Also, mass pvp around a space battle? No thanks. Fighting one or two other people around the frigates is passable. Lots of players? Again, no thanks.

The missile restrictions doesn't bother me too much, but I do see your point Jir. We've run into some issues in the past, but folks tend to be honest for the most part.
The notion that "other folks" can/will be at the Space Battle could throw a monkey wrench in everything. We can't control someone else taking out the Lancer/Frigate. Could be a lag fest also.
Spent last night outfitting Oiri's T-Wing, Z, & Arc w/gunner and then had more fun outfitting Iomew's Havoc.
Texture #2 (The only one that seemed to work) on the Havoc with Black on Black paint makes this one f'n cool looking ship. Most likely I'll be flying this tonight.

My main issue is, if people are complaining about missles, just have an event outright banning them. Twin proton 2's on a YT is near useless. Triple p2s on Deci & Novas are still kinda worthwhile. To partially make up its tube disadvantage, the YT needs powerful missles.
We get about a quarter of our kills from P4s. I won't even bother to load missles of lesser impact.
