I love my advanced escort and was planning to buy a fleet version when my fleet completes its tier 4 shipyard. Which ship do you prefer, the advanced or tactical escort. The fleet tactical escort is available now with a tier three shipyard.

Thanks!

    I`m flying fleet tc escort. the only difference is; fleet adv escort is leaning more towards science and fleet tac. escort is pure tac.. Difernece is in boff`s layout, console set up and turn rate.
    Fleet tac. esc have:

    cmdr. tac,
    lt. cmdr. tac,
    ens. tac.
    lt. sci
    lt. eng

    Fleet adv. escort have:

    cmdr. tac,
    lt. tac,
    ens. tac
    lt. cmdr sci
    lt. eng

    The difference in consoles is: F. tac esc. 3 eng, 2 sci, and F. adv esc 2 eng and 3 sci.

    base turn rate better on fl tac esc 17 vs. 16, BUT in sep. mode on adv escort u get bonus turn rate.

    Its really depends on your playstyle and what u like more, but if u are able take both ships, and if u dont have MVAM i think u should be better with fleet tac. there, edited, i hope its OK now -.-

    The Fleet Defiant's turn is at 17, the Fleet AE is at 16. The Fleet AE also has a Lt. Com. Sci, not a second Lt. Com. Tac.
