I think when it comes to boosters almost everyone uses scouts.

The reasons being that they are available to all and are a little more disposable that most.

Destroyers with a little laser can make for excellent posturing... but accidental battles will leave your bluff wide open... and your race will get pounded.

As far as the engines are concerned the best thing to do would be to crack open Stars! editors and look a the fuel usage % stats. I think 110% is the optimum fuel usage so look for the cheapest engines that have reasonable usage at warp 8 or 8.

The DD7 is great if you want to go warp 7... if you want to go warp 9 forget it. Same applies with the warp 8 engine.

The rad ram scoop is fantastic. I love rad immunity (because no-one really takes it much) as well as crazy rad habs. Suure it don't do warp 9 so well... but it's assured warp 6.
