I'm almost certainly going to appropriate the names you use for the
Solomani ships in particular, as Confederation designs and probably the
general specs (displacement tonnage, etc). I don't think it's really
viable for ships like the dreadnoughts to have such low acceleration which
would be a huge combat liability. I'd rather sacrifice armor and screens
or even bring down the spinal a bit since maneuver drive is one of the most
important stats and arguably more valuable than screens. Usually the first
victim is the Jump Drive, though.
Is that why you did the Tigress as 3G?
probably just difference base conceptions IYTU than mine. Would love to
get BR digitized (ideally in 3 dimensions) so we could do Top Laser.
