The Ship Class You Use Most

Nyx - I used to do the minimum size thing on Warp ships, Planet makers, etc. But got tired of having to return to a shipyard to make repairs so I upped the ship size to hold a repair unit & fill any extra space w/supply units. The extra cost is offset by the extra freedom. - I think I use a Lt. Cruiser design...

My question to both of you: Are you using this design to exploit the bug where stellar manip devices do not consume the supplies they are suppose to? They are suppose to use 1000 - 4000 supplies each from the description. I emailed MM about this bug, but have not heard a reply yet.
WhiteHojo, I believe with the right supply storage level a lt. cruiser could work, my design is like yours, but since I've yet to research QR component, I include solar collectors to regain lost supplies. I can not recall if it fits on a lt. cruiser or if I use the next biggest size.
