Description: The Type C 130 Starfighter carrier is an experimental revival of the ancient aircraft carrier concept. The idea is that of a ship specialised for fighter housing, repair, fueling, arming, and deployment. It has a specialised CIC for dedicated fighter co-ordination, which makes it superior for that function than other ships that simply double as carriers. Unlike assault warshps designed to bring the hammer down upon the Consortium's enemies, the carrier is desgined to only provide support fire, defend itself, and act as both a fighter base and command centre.

Okie. I hope I got it made well the first time. I don't think I'm off anywhere...

Apologies for the delay, I have been experiencing weather-related issues.

Armament: Moderate

Defenses: High

Hangar: Very High - X6 squadrons

Maneuverability Rating: Moderate

Speed Rating: Moderate

These are your ship's ratings. Here's what we have for the Unique Cruiser (@ 1000 meters) in our reference table:

Even if I were to re-arrange the unique cruiser's ratings around to be more evenly spread it still falls short of your submission. Generally lowering production allows you to increase a single rating once, while introducing comparable weaknesses allows for slight increases here and there as they balance each other out.

Keep in mind the above is also 250 meters longer than your ship, increasing the size of vessels allows for more hangar space and other features.

So what I'm going to ask right now is that you tone down the speed and maneuverability of your ship to fall more in line with the weakness you've included, as well as armament

Slower and less manoeuvrable than assault ships

This should be Low, as average is the average speed/maneuverability for the entire class/size of ship (cruisers in general), and thus moderate is a step above that falling just short of high.

Fewer assault weapons in favour of defensive ones

Whilst moderate is not an exceptional amount of weapons, it is a step above what would be considered average for a ship of this class (cruisers). Thus bumping up the rating from average to moderate is stating that it is more heavily armed than the average cruiser, which contrasts slightly with your listed weakness. It would be perfectly acceptable to make this average.
An example would be:

Armament: Average
Defense: High
Hangar: Very High (x6)
Speed: Low
Maneuverability: Low

You can adjust this by lowering your hangar or defense rating, or even production, to increase other ratings, as well as adding additional, noticeable, weaknesses that would come into play in combat/fleeting.

I upsized it to 1000 long and a bit more to the width and height for more reasonable size. i kinda low balled this thing. :/

And I fixed the ratings. I was running on semantics of the words, rather than their contextual meanings. Sorry about that. is this better?
