RPG Skill Breakdown
I've decided to start work on my old RPG proposal and I need an answer from people on something.  Does this look like a good breakdown of fighter/bomber piloting skills:

Terran Light Fighter - Loki, Pegasus, Perseus, Ulysses, Valkyrie
Terran Medium Fighter - Apollo, Myrmidon
Terran Heavy Fighter - Ares, Erinyes, Hercules, Hercules II
Terran Light Bomber - Artemis, Athena, Zeus
Terran Heavy Bomber - Boanerges, Medusa, Ursa

Vasudan Light Fighter - Anubis, Horus, Ptah, Serapis, Thoth
Vasudan Medium Fighter - Seth
Vasudan Heavy Fighter - Tauret
Vasudan Light Bomber - Bahka
Vasudan Heavy Bomber - Amun, Osiris, Sekhmet

This system refers to general size and maneuverability, not specifically firepower, by the way.

EDIT: Seth moved.

I always thought the Seth was pretty much on par with the Apollo More of its equal than the Anubis ever was, at least in the TV-war. I think the Seth could go for both, depending on load-out.

Nah, the Medusa is definitely a heavy bomber.  Just in terms of size, as it dwarfs fighters.  Light bombers are more or less the size of large fightercraft.
who needs a signature? ;)
It's not much of an excuse for a website, but my stuff can be found here

@FireCrack: Have you ever flown the Bahka?  It's the equivalent of the Artemis.  This is based more on handling and size, not firepower.

@Solatar: I'd wondered about the Seth, anyway.  The problem is, Vasudan ships emphasize handling more than their counterparts do.

Weapons are very much handled by other skills.  This is just so I can determine which fighters go where.

Yeah, but it caries helioses, the ability to destroy capital ships is what makes me classify things as heavy or light, medusas cant carry helioses or harbingers.

I think you could make the perseus a medium fighter
