>TimelessGuh. That’s supposed to be “typeless”. Stupid autocorrect.
>>6140264Breaking it down…
>1 Dorsal-mounted Medium Lasercannon (Linked 1)>1 Ventral-mounted Medium Lasercannon (Linked 1)>Linked X adds an extra weapon to make it a pair for the cost of 1 HP. An E-9 would have 4 dedicated Weapon Hardpoints.
>>6140269Quad Laser Cannon is more powerful because it can only be mounted on a ship with a minimum Silhouette of 4. Which, happy coincidence that the Albatross is an S4 ship.

In any event, a quick explanation on range brackets.
>Close - a few dozen meters up to a dozen kilometers.>Short - 12 to 50 kilometers.>Medium - 50 to 100 kilometers.>Long - 100 to 200 kilometers.>Extreme - the furthest edge of a ship’s scanner.Range is largely abstracted, but you use the Fly/Drive action to change the distance of your enemy relative to yourself. Which in this system, means changing the range bracket. The E-9’s has a Speed of 3, and only uses one maneuver to get from Short to Close.
