Played an interesting Klingon fleet last night....

[deadshane]

5xE4 Frigate
3xD7 Command Cruiser

990pts

No way to get rid of my extra initiative points so I've got the plus two.
DEEP initiative sink.
E-4's were WAY more sturdy than I gave them credit for. I didnt think about that little 75pt ship effectively having 20 sheilds in the FA.

I was all over my fed opponent like stink on poop! :lol:

I may have to explore the mass frigate fleets of the Klingons more...was pretty awesome.

I know. At first you're thinking you'd never take an E4 over an F5, but once you're in phaser-2 range there isn't much difference, apart from the fact that you've got more ships, more initiative sinks and you're a lot less bothered about losing an E4 than an F5.

You get three E4s for just over the cost of 2 F5s.

I'm not sure about 3 D7Cs in the fleet (I'd have been tempted to switch one for an FD7).

Did you go for a frigate wolfpack that swarmed your opponents big ships while your cruisers stayed at range, or did you go with a two wave sweep or what?

Yeah, details man, details! What was your opponent using, what was the mission, how did it go turn by turn, I'm interested to read more.
