Only if you want to play in the canonical Tuffleyverse. There are no
Kra'Vak in other backgrounds. I need the high-maneuverability option if
I
want to play, eg, those "telerobotically controlled" Syndic raiders from
"The Fleet" series, or the B5 Centauri. Neither of those races use
railguns for ship-to-ship combat, so the KV are a rather poor simulation
of them.

FB2 will *NOT* be a product where you have to stick to a specific race's
combination of engines and weapons. That'd kill the entire idea with a
generic space combat game.
