RE: National Characteristics?

Nothing official at the moment, but someone's webpage does have a basis
for the NAC & ESU (I forget who's, you'll have to try the links on the
UFTWWWP).
>From that page, the NAC tend to use a lot of fighters (the Fleet
Carrier
is their standard attack craft) & the ESU used a majority of beam
weapons & some subpacs. They're only beginning to explore fighter usage.
