Well I'm a bit flattered that game has decided to use my stats as a base and disappointed at the same time because he didn't deal with either of the two basic flaws in my stats. There are still two cath attack ships that target FR with EMP, and the zik FR fleet can't steal. Really the stats needed to be totally rewritten, but oh well. Most of the things I see that are wrong with game's attempt have to do with my different philosophy about how to build stats, so I'll just keep my comments to myself. I have to at least say however that it does confuse me that after my mistake with the thief in r21 no one has really complained about game doing the same thing with the investor (which is pretty much useless) for r23.

P.S. To answer the original question in the thread I looked at cath and said wow, for the first time since r5 I may actually consider playing cath. Their offensive firepower is unstoppable (they target everything that targets them that can make out of gal eta), and by building just attack fleets and BS caths will be able to cover everything but DE/CR effectively, talk about a great combo.
