Wanted to chime in and agree on the basic premise that the LoNAW should not be inferior on a ship to ship basis.
The fleet should make some rational sense in its construction, in that it can serve all the roles needed by its home government. One reason I am against the Drazi fleet build we currently have is they are the largest of the Non-aligned and yet cannot patrol their borders effectively (ie no scout).
The economic limitations of the fleet should be reflected in a game that deals with historical production and not in ACtA. Certain races could easily build a few large ships to defend their homeworld without needing numerous lesser ships to defend a larger territory. Some races could build all carriers intending to sacrifice individuals in cheap ships due to a philosphy of life an underclass being cheap but the master class being to important to risk.
Too unfocused right now to make that all make sense.
