Ya!  My favorite tactic was to take a gorn DD add one Plasma torp to it,
and
then during the game plot a maximum speed of "turn mode 1" (that is
travel
as fast as you can, and still have a TM 1).  This usually means a speed
of
3-6.  Too slow?  Not for a certain dedicated klingon player...he just
raced
across the map, trying to beat my plasma reload!  When he was point
blank, I
let em have it!  My gorn DD lost a couple of shield boxs, and his ship
was a
cripple!  Three turns and it was over!	It certainly makes those
"overun'em
players" think twice after that!
