Except they don't. They take something like 10% of rated power in standby. 2.5 MW isn't a worry. 10 MW isn't usually worth the trouble of shutting them off.Wurmish wrote:Like those big shiny guns I don't need to use for basecracking that take up anywhere from 25 to 100 MW just sitting there?

Now enhancers can be a drain now since they draw full power all the time and the new ones can be energy hogs. I would turn off a howitzer high-speed loader, but not a howitzer.
