ship sizes , the bigger, the greater ?
1) Warships : When you discover a new ship size, do you systematically make your smaller hulls designs obsolete ? Is there a reason to make bigger ships escorted by small ones (except for fun ?).
The maintenance/fire power balance is better with big ships, isn't it.
2) Non-warship hulls : Are they really usefull ? a battlecruiser sized ship can make a good, large and fast transport or colony ship, or an efficient carrier or mine layer, without the limitations (speed, cargos, weapons) of specialized hulls...

Re: ship sizes , the bigger, the greater ?
1) I keep small ships for other tasks than battle: minelaying, minesweeping, reconnaissance, satlaying, resupply (early on), repair and so on.
2) For specialised tasks i use the non-nonwarship
hulls. Maybe i shouldn't. I don't know.

the specialized are cheaper and faster for their size.

Re: ship sizes , the bigger, the greater ?
In stock SE, yes, bigger is better.
IN Proportions/AIC, I sometimes build destroyers even when i have Battleships tech.
