I'm looking at a list of all the 'alien' prize ships from STO alongside a list of all the Fed and Klingon ships. Now I'm wondering why, with the exception of the Tal Shiar ships, so many of the faction-specific ships are so similar, stat and ability-wise, to these 'alien' ships.... I just don't understand why....
Do you think maybe it's so no one ship is perfect and owns them all?

For example:
Elachi Dread/Cruiser's crescent Cannon = Federation Dreadnought's Spinal Lance or Rommie Dread's Tharalon Pulse
Tholian ships' web = Tractor beam mines/abilities (love those things)
Jemmie carriers are basically sexier, sleeker versions of the Klingon carriers (With different fighters, obviously).
Not gonna comment on the Event Ships, cause those are amazing.
Same with the temporal ones.

Thank you very much. All these comparisons gave me a hard laugh for their inaccuracies.
Huh.... thought that was right, but.... I'm ignorant, so Yay! By the description and stats of the Elachi Cruiser, I thought the Crescent Cannon comparison was right.... and what exactly makes the Jemmie Carriers better?
So, the extra BOFF and the Dominion Command Interface... OK. Now disprove me on the Tholian Web and the Elachi Crescent Cannon.

Wow. Just wow. I fail to see, how you could have missed the better Turn Rate, the additional Weapon Slot, the greater Hull, the better Shield Modifier or the better Weapon Bonus. Just Wow.
You know, I was about to use my time to disprove you on detail. But now I refuse to as you just wouldn't see it anyway. Which would result in a waste of my time. Just do a search on STOwiki or other sources next time to get your facts straight.
