Now that we've been playing the game for a while and been contending with numerous events, including the insidious end-game with the Task Forces or what have you I'm wondering if you more experienced, knowledged and better players can answer a simple question.

Out of the three types(Escort, Cruiser, Science) what one is probably the least used?

And in end-game out of the Six types what is probably the least used?
In case you forgot, the six types are:
Advanced Escort :: Fleet Escort
Assault Cruiser :: Star Cruiser
Recon Science Vessel :: Deepspace Science Vessel



And for added points what's probably the least used type on the Klingon side?

(edit:; ahha, can't believe I called the cruiser a carrier)

    Cruiser, not Carrier, and you forgot the most popular ship EVER!!! I mean everyone has flown one. You know it, you love it (or hate it), the one, the only!!! Light-Cruiser!!!

    Barring the runabouts and shuttles.

    Least used Fed side? Probably Recon Science Vessel, I see like 10 tridents for every recon.

    both escorts are pretty common as are both cruisers.

    Klink side? Any raptor past T2, after T2 its pretty much just BoPs and Battle Cruisers.

    I rarely see steamrunner knockoff class, whatever that is. I think it's the T3 escort

    Hehe, I think I wouldn't want to do evasive with that either. But, useless?
    For now, yeah! But they must have thought something about it besides its novelty value.
    So, maybe Runabout-specific wormhole missions anyone? :D

    I'd use it, but I feel it actually turned out to not be very Steamrunner like at all which was mildly disappointing.

    I understand why though, the components are modular and must all be able to fit with the other component combinations.

    I fly Akira instead which they nailed absolutely to a tee as far as the model is concerned. :cool:

    It's not captain tier, it's usable from T1

    I switch from a Deep Space Science vessel to a Recon just because I can't stand any of the secondary arrays bolted to the underside. It looks like my ship's junk is hanging out.

    I wish they would put in the option for 'NONE' on the secondary arrays on the Deep Space ships like they did with the mission pods on the Recons.
