if we will compare this supposedly 'light' bcr with outcast light bcr
You can see it matching dimensions looking above
but looking from side, its height at least 1.5x bigger than outcast battle cruiser
What is it important, you can say?
The answer is... battlecruiser should be flat in at least one dimension (comparing to other bcrs) to evade properly.
You can see order bcr which tall as gallic one
but it is quite flat in another dimension
So if player rolls his Outcast or Order ship right, he can evade shots properly.
Or if he just tries to fly away without any advanced maneuvrs:
Order bcr can just shift slightly to left and right, to be escaping shots
And Outcast just need shift slightly higher and down to do the same.
But gallic bcr can't do anything. It is fat in height and width at the same time. So it is at least twice worse to evade shots. And if you know that bcr survival is depended on escaping battleship shots, you will understand the problem.
Gallic bcr is not having any dimension it can use for evasive maneuvrs properly.
and at the same time it has no firepower to compensate it, just 2 heavy slots.
Conclusion: Weakest in firepower, worst in evasiveness fatest bcr you can ever find. No pros, only cons for gallic bcr. 0/10.
