The Octopus is a very weak version of the Elephant.
The Essex and York are both destroyers.
We promote Captain Randall Lewis to Admiral Lewis, now that he has so many more ships. We promote our own people, scan ships for tracers, bombs, spy equipment of all sorts, and do a little recruiting from places where we fully trust people.
We now have the same number of WarShips as the Dragoons.
They have an Aegis like we do, a Congress Frigate, 2 Lola III Destroyers, a Soyuz Heavy Cruiser, and a Vincent mk 42 Corvette. We are lighter, with two corvette/raiders, a corvette, and 2 destroyers, plus the heavy cruiser.
But this is a nice step in the right direction, right? Right!
Once fixed, our WarShip fleet, at six, is just one less than the entire Capellan Confederation with 7.
Now, the Aegis class, which we have, is still, despite a Heavy Cruiser class (below Battle Cruiser and Battleship) is still the 11th best battle value of all ships ever, including the clan Leviathan and the nasty McKenna Battleship. There are multiple battle crusaders and battleships that have a lower BV than our Aegis, such as the Texas Battle Cruiser.
Our new York? 75k BV. The new Essex? 65k. Our Fresada is at 48.7k and the Fox is 39k. Then the Aegis is 174. That’s just a blow out against most modern naval ships.
What we need are more pocket WarShips and assault DropShips. More and more DropShips ar coming off the lines with naval class weaponry, or being refitted with it.
