The Lightning Torpedo Cruiser just seems a lot like the Plasma Siege Starship.  But since it seems to be winning, maybe the Plasma Siege Starship needs to lose its Engine Damage so it isn't so useful against fleet blobs comparatively.  It has always felt a little out-of-place to me.
What I'm interested in is having an actually long range starship (i.e., 30k+)

Technically a Railgun-equipped spire corvette can be a long range starship, but you can only get so far with sniping.

When half of your FS fleet is equipped for sniping... you can get very far with it.

There are many units against which 35,000 range is better than 999,999,000 range.

This has run for a bit over 4 days, so going ahead and calling it (partly because my dev schedule calls for these to be in the process of implementation now) :

23    Lightning Torpedo Cruiser
21    Neinzul Combat Carrier
14    Sniper Laser Pods
12    Protector Starship
12    Zenith Battleship
11    Hydra Flame Thrower

The protector starship will probably be a little tricky due to new mechanics, but we'll see :)

Thanks for the feedback!

Don't worry, if the SSB is any indication those new mechanics will be on half the units within a year.

I forgot to suggest Combat Engineer... CE would have worked well with the new Mobile Space Dock, would have brought new tactics and possibilities and would have been unique. Oh well..
