What is the convention in the sourcebooks for two weapons getting the same name?
I would have assumed that a given weapon has the same stats (excepts for arcs), but in the Imperial Sourceboook, Lightning Turrets have RNG 12 on some ships, 15 on others.
While I wasn't the author of said books, I think I know what the author did there. If you look, most of the ships with shorter range turrets are smaller ships either frigates, destroyers or light cruisers. The lighter ships probably have shorter range due to power concerns. (Though I'd also suspect that it's also a balancing act because they are faster...)

There wasn't really a convention involved... I was just too lazy to designate different classes or "marks" of the same weapon system.
