It would be good to have a common BB-design BUT
* the East needs BBs asap
* the East has EP

To get BBs asap, the first need to be built with weap14. To avoid the usual problems and pitfalls with using a mixup of range 2 and 3 weapons, I would rather go for a dedicated sapper design. Another advantage of this, 1 BB-design for each weap-level: 14, 15, 16

1) Mark the Blaster
=> needs weap 14
weight: 357 kt, battel speed: 2.25
cost (for JOAT): 757res, 200i, 305b, 145g

2) Sapped Advance
=> needs weap 15
weight: 337 kt, battel speed: 2.25
cost (for JOAT): 777res, 200i, 85b, 265g

3) Fear the Free
=> needs weap 16

a) Possible EP-design if a dedicated Sapper design will be used.
weight: 353 kt, battel speed: 2.25
cost (for JOAT): 937res, 200i, 405b, 169g

b) can be built by every IA-member
=> needs prop 12 or Trans-Gal which raises the costs significantly
weight: 345 kt, battel speed: 1.75
cost (for JOAT): 876res, 210i, 345b, 134g

Caps, jams, speed:
* If a battlespeed of 2.25 or higher can't be reached, I'd judge 1.75 a minimum for a laser-design.
* Jams are fine but if you use jams on your laser-design, you better use jams also on your missile-ships
* Jams are ONLY good vs missiles, they don't do anything vs enemy-laser-ships (VA has started to massbuilt a laser-design)
* Caps are ALWAYS of use
* chaff can be used vs missiles

Thus I usually rather go for caps instead of jams.

Curious to see other suggestions and designs.
