isn't the design akin to a ww2 battleship armed with machineguns.
Most ships seem to be armed with a small number of large calibre weapons
and some secondaries.

The design that was jokingly described on the list as the "Dreadplanet
Roberts" was mass 1120, and got halfway regularly played in my games.
There was a larger one as well that was over 2000, but it didn't see the
table very often because we usually held the custom games in the old
group to NPV 5000 limits, but the bigger one sometimes came out on the
rare occasions we got up to 10000. The newer group's scenarios are
getting much bigger than that, so a 3000 mass dreadplanet might just
make an appearance.
