    Cannons typically don't go on Fed non-escorts. The Gal-X is a special exception. Klingon cruisers get to use cannons because of their status as warships, not exploration/military vessel hybrids like the Feds.

    Why would you want to use cannons on these ships anyway? Their turn rate is so poor, you'd rarely get your opponent in the firing arc.

    The Bortas is a weak beast compared to the Odyssey, so I wouldn't be complaining too much. I'll persevere with it, and hopefully some buffs are on the way.

    Difference between a battle cruiser and a cruiser is in the cannons......
    Hardly overpowered on the BortaS since its 5.5 turn rate means those DHCs never come to target in a fight...
    Still got both +XX/+x to power on that Odysses, yes? So you only lost the Ensign U-slots and had the effects of the FG & SEA changes to worry you. Wow, and got a bonus non-combat ability.

    The BortaS lost the +5 to engines, -20% to Cloak and suffered from the ensign U-slots going away plus the FG & SEA changes.
    With a single Sciconsole slot that last one really hurt its Tanking ability.

    My heart bleeds for you that the Odysses lost that Ensign slot.......


    you got your invincibility shield nerfed based on common sense of its not needing a 90% damage reduction.
