Title says it all, we should get rapid torp/cruise missile launchers. There's already a ship with bonuses to them (Scorp Navy/Raven).

Rapid Weapons were always for the next highser ship class, so they would be capital exclusive and not for bs.

And that would be okay for me but not for bs.

Aha.
Noone corrected me in the OP either about how the ships have rapid torp/cruise bonuses, so I just assumed it was ccp being lazy and not adding rapid to all things.

Hahaha, you cannot be serious! Rapid torp launcher and ammo for battleships... versus battleships....?

Why do you want this in the game? Why not enjoy the bonuses of some ships with RoF 5% bonus?

Originally I thought that when something said "5% bonus to rapid type1, type2, type3 launcher Rate of fire", it meant it was a 5% bonus to rapids of type1, 2 and 3, not just 1. So then I figured "Well it's pretty bloody stupid to have bonuses for a launcher that doesn't exist, so let's go post a suggestion for them in the forums".

It's bonuses, not boni, you cretins.
