Not a legal design, 2 over-mass:

Becomes legal if you increase hull size to 88, 301 points.

>Battlecruiser

Legal, but 2 under-mass; I'd be inclined to add another beam-2 in the
forward hemisphere.

With the extra B2, 441 points.

Legal design, 834 points.

>Light Carrier

Legal design, 607 points.

Yes, I like these - sufficiently different from the FB fleets and the
other ships I've been playing with (mostly NR). I'd still like to see
rules for big spinal weapons in the "official" versions.
