Ship Design Advice for Crystal

My advice if you go with baseships: switch to a master computer instead of bridge/CQ/LS, add another 5-6 crystalline armors, add another backup emissive armor or two, switch all your weapons to massive mount, and fill up the rest of the space with more massive mount weapons.

Speed is somewhat important. My race is a propulsion expert so I can get 9. But 10 is what we need. I have some Baseships which I am retrofitting this turn. They are the survivors of the last big battle. I have new DNs with your design going into production. The simulator showed better performance than what I was using. Thanks for the help and long live the Grand Alliance.

9 and 10 are the same for me : speed of 5 in battle

In battle speed is not as important as strategic speed. I have to maneuver with other races and the speed difference could have half our fleet arriving the day after the battle:-)
