now for constructive crtiticsm:
your list is missing missiles as a component (maybe other stuff too, I didn't look too closely), and the game is missing Hit-and-Run routines, and many other usefull tactics.

also, I suggest you lower your exectations, or allow multiple submissions- otherwise we'll never start. also, this is pretty much moot right now, but due to a large RPS factor of the ship designs, I think ships should be orgainzed in 4-6 ship groups of which the best (or the best 2) would go up the ladder, I know this would require much more time (and I'm willing to help), but the other way will not provide good results.


edit:
finaly I'm proud to present:
Kursk Class
16 decks, 2 of which are armored to to 500 standard units.
comfortable 0.1g accelration and turning, and a top speed of 0.5 thousnad miles per hour.
8 high caliber guns (4 tachyons and 4 railguns) and 8 light guns (gatling pulsers).

Nicknamed "Crab" by the USCF personel, Kursk is Confederations workhorse heavy cruiser, serving both at the Keraskhian border and escorting large convoys in the confederation itself.

My list is indeed missing missiles. I'll add them in a sec.

I'm not sure what you mean by hit-and-run routines. Flanking AI with a high speed? Feel free to use that...

I have lowered my expectations quite a bit (read my previous post ). For some reason I remembered this place as having a very active community .

Don't you think that allowing multiple submissions would kinda ruin the competition? The idea is that you get only one shot so you better have quite the design.

I guess that I don't mind running the simulations if there are at least 6 competitors.

Nice ship!

Here's a screenshot of "the Crab" fighting the Balthasar for those who'd rather not install the game and/or download the file :
