Best Cruiser Overall

To-may-toe, to-mah-toe...

Rule 6.8e: cruisers (including destroyers and battlecruisers)

We're not wet navy here, so if you're considering a frigate the same as a destroyer the same as a cruiser, but NOT including battlecruisers, then you need to get some Rid, because you're picking nits.

The Kusari and BHG Dessie are almost in a class to themselves. And while the AI Cruiser is a nice little ship, it's barely better than a large gunboat. And let's face it - the Irra effectively IS a battlecruiser, because of the thrust, the main guns, and the general overall capability of the ship.

This rule is made to prevent confusion whether it should be counted as a cruiser or battleship ID wise. Battlecruiser are just another ship class.
