so at the moment...i have 4 light quantum devs(150attack each), and 1 microwarp nacelle (176defense). should i keep it this way, or change 2 cannons to install one more defense.

the way it is i have 614 attack, 190 defense.

so what should i do?

So long as you have the hull to back it up, that defence will do you. Not sure how much hull that is though at your rank...

leave the guns- grow your ship and put a second defence on when you can- try to keep the ratio of two to one as you grow- you can fit 8 defence modules same as guns- but they are damned big- is a good place to start

I have to disagree slightly. At very low ranks very few people have any defense mods installed. You're better off stacking guns and hull. That gives you a better chance of disabling others before their guns have a chance to do much to you. I didn't worry about defense mods until I had 8 respectable guns and 5 respectable hulls. Then I started adding defense 1 at a time until I had all 8.

really? this could work, i could have 6 cannons if i scrapped my defense. i will try, and post my evaluation on here.
