GURPS Spaceships Design Spreadsheet

Eric... this is fantastic! Thank you a million times for making this :) The SM-1 and Half-size modules make life awesome. :) Especially if you and your gaming buddies have a fondness for absurdly huge warships with lots of systems.

That said though, I'm still a bit swamped by the number of peripheral guns by the time you get to the bigger SM's .. around 17 or so. By the time you get to something like SM 24 you end up with quite literally billions of point defense guns -- which has a certain appeal, "My 33 billion point defence guns open fire, bwhahaha!" but its a bit tricky to actually manage. :)

Would it be possible to have another 'layer' of guns, say, between tertiary and peripheral? Say, "quarternary" that are a SM-minus-whatever that show up past a certain SM size that will have maybe around 10,000-100,000 guns?

Thats an idea/suggestion anyway.

Thanks again Eric! Very awesome.
