What do the ICC have going for them? I mean a BC with a little modding can thump an AD. The Combat Dread is good but the arcs are so crazy you'll never get off a decent alpha strike. Yes they can some pretty bad punishment but they cant dish it out they can only take it in the face. In short it would take like 3 ADs to take out one BD which I find sad.
I used a Combat Dread and modded it to the max...i got pimp slapped by a cruiser . Combat Dread would be a draft pic ship for me but its arcs are so poor it aint worth loosing the prest so i'm just asking what do the ICC have going for them if their dreads arent even that good?

I don't think you're actually supposed to fly the combat dread.

Assault and EAD are front arcs only.
Battle and Combat Dreads are full arc mainstay battle ships.

well its certainly not active players... LOL
But all kidding aside, The ICC have some big advantages.. And like Trekk is trying to point out when the LVL system is put in then we will be able to see.
@ Pants, yeah lol.
