Reviews and Balance Issues: Red Hardpoint Modules

*Rise, RISE not-quite-dead thread!*

I tend to start with a single Laser + Bolter Drones. That combo is generally enough for me to buy (or steal, from wreckage) all the actual heavy-hitters and escorts I need.

If using just always-available Human weapons, my starting build for any given ship is the above, followed by a Nuke Cannon. Until Death Rays come along, anyhow, or other superior found/station-purchased weapons.
