Terrans are rarely if ever touched for a reason, they are balanced. they can do well in any type of situation and any type of fleet. People need to stop worrying about how to make them "more" balanced and use them as criteria for balancing the other races. I guess it`s still a little unbalanced for other races, but I`ve Never saw one race as superior (except good ol` Aspha Miners, and my opinion is in the minority there, always has been).
That said, Marauder Do Not need a starbase. Starbases are defensive weapons, Marauder don`t do defense. A Marauder Starbase would guard what? According to their description, Marauder don`t have a home or stationary base to protect. :P
It is under this same logic that Collective and Viral don`t have dreads, dreads are for destruction, their races are for infection. Smaller ships are better for doing damage and "boarding" enemy ships. It is how their race is meant to be.
Guardians don`t have them for the obvious fact that they just don`t need them. Their fighters climb like dreads. :P
Terrans having D class ships? Whaaat? Why would Dark Marauder give Terrans their ships? "Here, use these ships humans. The next time we try to rob you you can defend yourself with our own tech."
So many changes proposed do not coincide with the context of the race people wish to change... does any body actually think of the race they are playing when making some of these suggestions??
