Limit propulsion modules to hull size.

Oversized prop mods are a cancer that break the game. Especially for smaller ships as it facilitates them to engage much larger vessels on totally uneven grounds and this gets compounded further when combined with links.

It's time we inject some sense and reason in to specific parts of the game. A destroyer should not be able to fit a 10mn AB because it literally cannot be mounted on such small engines. End of story.

I think this would hurt more then it adds...

I for one LIKE being MORE FLEXIBLE in my fitting choices... And if you dont like people fitting 100mn vagas or whatever, fit webs/scrams/etc and just pwnmobile them... Punish them for making the selection they made, fitting that way compromised them somewhere else...

While having oversized ABs can give you speed of an MWD without the penalties, you get HORRIBLE agility and speed acceleration. It's a tradeoff that has to be made, and I see nothing wrong with it.

I'm pretty sure oversized AB gimp the fit of anything you put them on (put standard ishtar exemption here Big smile)

If someone wants to give up all the grid and CPU to put an oversized AB, then let them.

If people can do this, I see no reason why I shouldn't be able to put a 10mn afterburner on a destroyer.
