It does certainly look that way, hiff!
Either that or bongs were on Buy One Get One Free at Somerfield this week

However.... if the DRakh mothership is ever released and gets stats makeover like this, I'll buy another one!

as a minbari player Trolli has definately gone to the top of the pile at its PL. Its nice to get an upgrade but its a bit daft as it is. And it definately looks like the Accountants are deciding on game revisions rather than the gamers.

That's the issue I have with stealth and all the answers to it. They all rely on a die roll to be able to do anything. A very few rolls can ruin a game for the opponent (and the Minbari player if he is a gentleman) as neither side feels their skills had much to do with victory. The fact that they are adding in a 'fleet wide' attempt to break stealth helps this to an extent, but stealth will get better and better as the battle moves on now. Even better than SFoS stealth apparently.

In games where my opponent never seems to get through the stealth (younger races) i feel bad. In games where they always seem to get through (older races) i feel bad. No win no win.

I too would like to see a better system for stealth than there is currently. The only suggestion i have tho is to roll per weapon fired rather than for each ship. but even that may not suffice.

Drakh GEG isnt much better. Game winner at low PL games. Bollox at high ones.

Both GEG and Stealth suffer from being unscaled.

Updated to include the Kabrokta (page 3) - a pretty good ship with good all-round firepower and toughness. Certainly enough to give people a good old think between this and the Kaliva.

Shouldnt it be the Kabrokta? the Brikorta is a skrimish ship

I witnessed two G'Vrahns destroy a Centauri fleet. I almost cried. Ohps, did I just type that I almost cried? The Apollo is awesome. Only faced one once and I got lucky with my Octurions opening shot knocking the Apollo's weapons off line. But the thought of an Apollo makes me shiver.
