Subject: Gaming Andromeda and other High Guard ships.

At the official web site ship listing:

http://www.allsystems.org/engineering/shipsindex.html

There is a section at the bottom of the ship description that has a
numerical rating for the ship in various categories, such as:

Mission Areas  
AST: Anti-Starship Warfare
Destroy, disable or disrupt hostile assets and operations  
BDO: Battlegroup Defense Operations
Conduct defensive action for the battlegroup in the theater of
operations  
CCC: Command, Control and Communications
Provide operational command and control capabilities for battlegroup
assets	
C2W: Command and Control Warfare
Destroy, disable or disrupt hostile command and control capabilities  
GSO: Guard Support Operations
Provide medical, search and other support services for battlegroup
assets	
GSW: Guard Special Warfare
Destroy, disable or disrupt hostile command and control capabilities  
IEO: Intergalactic Exploration Operations
Conduct and support deep space scientific and research operations  
IMW: Interplanetary Mine Warfare 
Conduct search and destroy anti-mine activities and clearance of
navigational hazards in the theater of operations  
INT: Intelligence Operations

intelligence  
LOG: Logistics Operations
Provide logistics support for battlegroup assets in theater of
operations  
MOB: Mobility Operations

PFW: Planet-Fall Warfare

PSW: Planetary Strike Warfare

The numbers seem to range from 1 to 10 and would be useful in making
ship-to-ship comparisons and for getting a better feel for what weight
each of the systems adds to the ship's capabilities.
