They don't have a Dreadnought dedicated entirely to support like the Carrier and Missile dread. We toyed with making the Ganglia VA, but it was too good, and when compared against the other two, it wasn't on-par.
Instead of nerfing it, we decided to up the rank.
Don't forget that K'luth get two Super Dreadnoughts, so you make up for it.

Because, in short, factions differ. K'Luth is a higher-level faction, so they get two super dreads and no VA dread.
Variety between factions is not a bad thing. At least, I don't think so.

I really don't see why have Dreads at VA.. You already get Super Cruisers at VA so why have dreads?
I mean if you look at it the Carrier Dread & Missle Dread arn't really ships to be using to fight BD's, CombD's and Mandi's. I think the VA dreads are the Dreads of Lost Pres!
You lose more pres in your VA dreads than you do in any other ship I say! Cause I've seen it so many times, someone ranks to VA and then they go straight for the dread. They die and get poped back to 1st Rear.
Thats my NEW thought.

agreed. I use my carrier dread ALL the time against krills, mandies, and combat dreads. It's not as good as a battle dread but it WILL hold its own, and makes a good front line support dread (even at close range). The kluth torp cruiser (can't remember the name) however, just does not hold it's own against bigger ships like the assault and torp cruisers of ICC/UGTO. I'd say it can't really hold it against other cruisers. I'd say don't nerf the ganglia but buff the missile dread a little, strip some missiles and give some close range punch, maybe a couple missile bays with core weaps. Find a middle ground...
