Does anyone ever use particular weapons just because they look better? I myself prefer the long slender barrels of the Flashpoints and Stealthblades. The Angelitos like a bit, comical really, they have they sort of comic blaster pistol look. And the Justice lasers. What's up with those wings on the side? they look horrendous.
I tend to go for an Anti-shield weapon (Stun pulse/Debilitator/Tizona) and a missile launcher, and then fill out the rest with fast firing high hull damage weapons. On my single player character I have a hammerhead with a debilitator, lancer missile and 4 Skyblast B's, since the 4 Sky B's drain the energy in 9 seconds i use three steps:
Take out the shield with the Debilitator
Bring the hull down to about half with the Sky B's
finish them off with a Lancer
It saves on the energy, and using the lancer let's the energy restore from the next opponent.

i think it's fitting to have your ship fitted out with the weapons that belong to the faction to which the ship belongs - when i fly a eagle, i load up on debilitators and skyblast b's. when i fly a sabre, then i go all the way with wyrms. it always looks best - it was probably designed to do that
