Do you remember the Wiley Coyote guy with the ACME Uber-Escort strategy. ROFL! That was too funny. That might have been before you were hanging out on the forum though. What was his name anyway? I can't remmeber now. I don't think he Posts anymore.

His name was GUTB.

My only problem is that dreadnoughts have no defensive penalties, but baseships have a 40% defense penalty; that seems like a big jump to me, even if baseships DO get to use massive weapon mounts...

Remember, a Baseship is essentially a Starbase fitted with engines. That is where the 40% comes from. It is slightly more manueverable than a sitting space hulk, but not by much.
