Talk:Pike

Does the Pike need a second info box for AP? Its stats haven't changed except perhaps a hull value. Is it possible to change the info box template to have two lines for Hull? Some ships merit a full new box, like the Boreas, but others only change hull values.

Edit: Never mind, I see the weapon selection changed.

In general i like to put the different variants (regardless of how the same they may be) in different variant entries. things have a habit of changing over patches and differences between expansion versions may or may not differ radically. It is possible to alter the infoboxes to note the differences though. among other things the weapon lines can be augmented by additional gunslot entries with appropriate notations, but you start running into problems of which value belongs to which ship. so while bulky, i think containing new data in new boxes works well enough. for different hull values you can always just workaround by integrating it in the input data ie: 1M/1.2M(AP) Madned (talk) 17:51, 7 December 2012 (CST)

No worries, I understand, I hadn't seen the different weapon compatibility. I'll follow these guidelines with my edits
