Plasma Cannon fire can take a turn to get to it's destination. #23

Your ships guns should hit land bound targets instantly, I mean, if your
shots are to have any hope of hitting stuff in space, they should move
faster then the eye can see on the ground.

Also, guns seem kind of wimpy considering they were meant for space
battles, but I guess you have to take balance into account.

Vague Idea: Make guns more devastating, but require LoS, make them take a
turn or two to warm up and give them splash damage large enough that you
have to worry a lot about hitting your men?

Depending on distance they can take even longer. (5 turns should be about the 
max you
can get)
Ship *does* need LOS. You don't. (why would you?) Also plasma cannon is still 
rather
small. try bigger guns :)
