      Lol, and the apparent lead strategic thinker for an ACTIVE REBELLION with absolutely billions of credits worth manpower, ships, material, logistics, and other assets, who consistently gives a coporal's view of operations and long term goals, while ranking higher than a general.
      Tragically inept. The Rebels are always rolling the dice on some risky one off mission, when they are suited at the very least to be a near peer adversary to the Empire. All that seemingly ever was required was a simple concentration of force at at a strategic objective.
      In 1941-42, the Allies were having their global asses handed to them everywhere. By mid to late 1943 it was completely the opposite, with the Axis and Japan backpedaling on all fronts, never to recover.

      Yup I played as well and this ship was the point of contention for the empire remnant. The front is not a fighter bay, it's part of the tractor beam system designed to pull enemy ships in and actually pull them apart as it does so. This includes the ships weapon batteries. It's a cool sight in the game when you see it in action.
