Having cheap t1 ancillary boosters as the only option is a bit lame. Will named/faction versions of these modules be released? I'd pay more for the module if it came with slightly better fitting requirements, or held more charges, or boosted more.

Because a Vargur that can tank 15,000 dps needs to be buffed in some way.

How did you Veterans start?

In my opinion, you'd pay more for the module, period.

Look at the ancillary armor rep; people willing to pay millions rather than do without. That qualifies it as Officer grade.

If you compare stats with a regular booster / repairer, the ancillary provides the same boosts as the T2 regular, no? With extra perks, like not having to spend capacitor to repair. This also qualifies it as Officer grade.

Named versions will be introduced shortly after the ASB is balanced like the AAR, to still use some cap and to only be able to fit 1 per ship.

My Hyperion is quivering at the thought. T2 large ancil + T2 large + asklepian + exile = FITE ME AT 0 BRUH! + tank the whole world + blow up the moon as well.

The game would suddenly break if named ancillary modules with marginally easier fitting requirements came out?

Well, let us reply with 7 more yes'es, because you don't believe us. Maybe if we use all caps...
