Topic: Start of a concept
Just the start of an idea I've had for a setting. The basics ships of the first race I worked on. Any thoughts, comments?

The "super dreadnought" is way too big for my tastes, but to each his own.
I'm interested to see the Terrans' adversaries.

Maybe a little big, but they fit with the background (still working on it). Basically humans are split into two camps; the very militaristic Enclave and the Colonial Forces who opposed the unilateral rule of the Enclave. Got a few small alien races that have banded together (sorta like a Leauge of Non-Aligned Worlds, only they got together to protect themselves from the 'strange' Humans who were bent on wrecking up the neighbourhood).
Also got a marauding AI race and high-tech extra-galactic invaders.
Just got to get it all in between school now.
I agree with daniel, I really wonder what kind of game could fit a SDN. With such a cost, the opposing fleet, if deploying cheaper ships (of the cruiser size, say 200 to 300 points) will be enormous. Ie, it could take a lot of time just to play it... but each time a SDN shoots means many enemy ships destroyed!
Other than that, I'm more on the easy designs, I prefer the 'one battery per weapon type' for example, but I understand your designs and why you did them that way.

Oh, the Orion CA lacks the thrust, weapon, shield and ECM ratings.

The shields on these ships have letters. Do the letters correspond to the Shield Level? Is this the translation?
b=2
c=3
d=4
e=5
f=6
If so, the Super dreadnought is well shielded.

It would appear so.
OK everone, guess who does not have OnGsheet1.ttf font installed.
The letters would have been dice.

Drat. Should be Thrust 4, ECM 1, Shields 4
