proper battle cruisers ("The agility of a cruiser and the firepower of a
battleship but don't kick it, your foot might go through the hull").
Strange, I hate the things but I want to be able to model them properly
and I am looking forward to the new Chatham book on them.
In SF I always assumed they were almost exactly the same as a battleship
only without the several metres of foamed steel/ceramic armour, the
reduced mass giving better acceleration at the expense of durability.
