One thing hat has bothered me about this game (which i think the game is awesome) is that when you get massive ships you start having a problem of Surface Area to volume.
In case any one doesn't understand what I'm talking about its like this you have 6 1X1 Sides to a 1x1x1 cube right?Well as your cube gets bigger you have less surface area reletive to teh volume.
What i'm getting at is you end up with large ships with wasted/ or empty internal area, on my big ships the area i don't need is armor plating so i end up with 1/2 my mass being internal armor.
Having multiple layers would allow more weapons and more intricate designs.
And/or having turrets that can stick strait up above the ship instead of out the side would be nice and make ships with slanted fronts like the ships below have more firepower than flat faced ships that just face tank.
The wasted space could be filled with vertical turrets for lack of a better term. also if vertical turrets were to be added i would be Ok with them having a limited firing angle and for any that didn't to cost much more.
