Long Live the Confederation!
The new plasma weapon is small, though -- it can be mounted on cruisers and such... it doesn't need a battleship to support it.
I'm quite sure the Plunkett wasn't introduced that recently, relative to 2681.Originally posted by Valor NR
So Confed has decided to go back with the Big Plasma weapons on the Plunkett Class did you see this as a step down? Just want your opinion on the new Cruiser Class

To Junior:Remember Confed isnt made of Only Carriers. So they have to rely on Cruisers and Destroyers on assaults when no carriers are around.
LOAF does know, I just can't find where he posted it (which was quite a long time ago).Originally posted by Valor NR
We don't really know when they were commissioned. LOAF might know.
Plunketts are artillery cruisers, they're supposed to have big guns to go against capships. Similar purpose for the Hades, although clearly less prominent.Originally posted by Valor NR
Then why do they make those cannons so big on the Plunketts and Hades class?
They don't have much use in 2681 Confed, and I don't think Phoenix is worried about it.Originally posted by Valor NR
To Phoenix: You like Battleships but you're worried they wouldn't have much use in today's Confed

TO Valor: your right its all about money and confed has none because of budget cuts and the magacarrier project.
