Kestels aren't really cost-effective...

Okay, I lost the corvette issue. But think, the Kestrel is 10 million, the defender is only 100,000. That's 100 defenders for 1 Kestrel. Personally I would rather have the fleet of 100 defenders. 😛

My fleet of 750 shuttlecrafts with one laser cannon each would totally eat your pathetic defender fleet.

100 defenders does sound cool, but I would rather have 10 Lightnings.

Destroyer E is the name of my ship and the name has a good meaning.

Are you kidding? You want to be outnumbered 10 to 1?

I like the Kestel for 2 reasons.

1)Tought enough to go toe-to-toe at close range with any frigate(properly equiped).
2)Fast enough to out run missles/torps - good for demanding tribute, or so the tactic I used.(demand far away, let them shoot missles till they run out - then move in for the kill)

At least the one I used - its been years since I've played though.
