In the last turns I realized several things:

1) Fighting BBs with up to weap 14 is possible with high enough numbers of cruisers with weap10. But weap10-CCs have no chance vs weap16-BBs, especially when shields are rendered useless by the powerful phased sappers.



Yup, but itīs also possible to fight W16 BBs with W14 CCs. Especially if you have RS and rams. Once we have prop 13 though with the EP, thatīs also pretty good. Iīm not sure if Iīll really want to go the BB way. As Iīve mentioned before, Graham in FA has taught me newfound respect for CCs.


True. I just wanted to stress the point that especially you and me (with the most weap10-CCs) should try to make heavy and good usage of our fleets BEFORE the VA's weap16-BBs arrive.

About using CCs when BBs are available:
As soon as you start thinking about capacitors, super-comps or jammers... it leads to BBs.

4) If we make a combined attack against the Vorlons via gates, we better use shipdesigns which can be transfered AND stacked.

Altogether I think we should keep in mind and discuss a bit more towards the aim that our main warships and bombers of the next generation are of the same design.



Yes and no, e.g. I was seriously thinking about using armored BBs, since I made the mistake of not taking RS I might as well make use of it. In FA I crunched the numbers and found that contrary to popular wisdom it was economically sensible to put organic armor on them, though in that case I had quite a high bio level from an MT. Will have to re-calculate that here...

Next thing EP (or whatever other toy some or us might get), not everyone has it, but itīd be stupid not to use it once itīs available (if ever, but Pak are making great progress there).


True.
But we really need the ability to stack our ships when we want to make a joint attack. Perhaps it is not necesary that all 4 of us build the same design... but 2-3 should agree at least on 2 main warship-designs: 1 laser-design, 1 missile-design
