I got to reviving that old 'Seagull Fighter/Bomber' I posted last year and I ran into this:
It's 55 tons, yet has a fixed medium pulse laser and 20.5 tons of pod space.
It's all legal; I ran the math myself on a graphing calculator. The question is: is it munchy?

Why is it munchy? How could it be munchy? There is not enough there to BE munchy.

Your poll has only one voting choice, like the election polls in Florida, and what is illegale about your fighter? How is it illegale and how is it munchy?

1. I know about the busted poll; I didn't see it until it was too late to fix.
2. The total pod space for that thing is over a third of its mass. And this is *before* you factor in bomb loadout.

its a fighter, not a tank. it carries more payload per ton.

So? That`s not inherently munchy or even
uncommon, is it? You will have to sacrifice
something, speed or armor, to get that.
It`s balanced out in the long run.
