[EDIT 1] simple MkIV variant can experience problems with power grid, but the point is to make turret port workable, not all ports together. So, only if turret port weapon consumes grid energy, pilot should sacrifice 1S port to balance energy use.
[EDIT 2] added PvP Veteran I badge, and increased buying price for renegade variant.

The Ragnarok MKIV has one flaw that I see: The badge. I see these being used not only for hive skirmishes/queening, but Deneb warfare. What we really need is some Deneb-related badges, but add PvP Veteran I to Levi Hunter I and it gets a +1.

Up the price of the Renegade, and you get a +1. XX needs some love.

+1 to Rag4.
+1 to badges. Only thing that REQUIRES a bomber as now are queens and Levis.

-1 to renegade. Unless if you also rip off its Lports. But I don't like to see combat ships as cargo/miner.

sounds wise, tarenty.

I added PvP Veteran I badge, and increased buying price for renegade variant.

I like it if you drop the PvP badge requirement. Some of us just like to fight the hive. Make it an either/or requirement, and I would be behind this 100%. I would add in one of the queen badges as an absolute requirement, the Levi/PvP as an either/or.
