- Finally...sanity!

- I rather enjoy the DD's maneuverability and long cloak duration so I
- often use it for nabbing planets, but with a single kill a SC makes a
- fine substitute, and a CA is easier to get and keep a kill with and
- lives better under fire. I'll ogg in a CA normally, DD sometimes, SC
- when necessary. I'll defend an LPS in a CA normally, BB sometimes.
- Cracking an LPS is a job for a CA or AS, but sometimes a SC can sneak
- in. I'll bomb almost exclusively in a SC, but a DD or CA is an
- adequate substitute for a quick pass over the planets. And if I find
- I'm having trouble in a particular situation in a particular ship,
- I'll try something different. Don't be such sticks in the muds.
