Taking all other races BCH's into account, is there any that are inferior to a BCG ?

Yes, there are.  But this is where the "improvements" cause a balance issue.   The F-BCG is fine until you start improving every other race's BCH.

We're not talking about a Mog refit of the Kzinti BCH here, all we're asking for is to upgrade the drone control from 6 to 12 so it can compete on even terms with the C7.

Then can we strip out 2  racks from the C7 and replace them with ESGs to "compete" with the BCF?
  ;D

-Even ignoring that stupid request (although if you want to do it..)
Once you give the BCG 12 drone control you have a near even matchup betweem a BCG and a C7.
Ooops- no wait, the BCG has 2AMD6 (iirc) against the C7's 1AMD12.. but then the BCG also has the G racks, now the advantage lies with the BCG, unless of course you change the BCG's G racks to B racks, then the advantage still (kinda) lies with the BCG as it has 2 seperate drone racks instead of the one, so you'd have to put them together...

Sorry shorty, but the C7 doesn't need ESG's to hold its own. Besides, Lyran BCH's can run rings around both ships. What's the problem? ;)

Well actually Ted, see yer kinda screwing me up here.
You were supposed to go on a tear and a rant about how only the BCG needed improvement, which would draw the Klingons in, then everyone else, with the eventual result that the BCHP's would get PlasmaD and 4 "F" racks (See? I wasn't even going to be greedy)

Now I'm kinda stuck...  :banghead:

Only if they're allied in SFC, or within in SFB ;)
