About Core ships[]
These are the soldiers of the fleet. It is a balanced all-around ship design capable of average defense, offense, and can maintain fleet battle speed. The salient feature is a good all-around defense. It is well short of being a Tank as it has greater firepower but due to its defense capability it isn't a Glass Cannon either.
