AI War - even the smallest units can make all the difference no matter how weak they are still quite capable of taking the hits. if it can Kill and receive damage then it worth its time other wise if it cant kill and cant take the damage for the higher surviving ships then it is worthless.

Out of silly curiosity, is there an official conversion somewhere for in-game units to meters or feet or furlongs or something? Or is it kept arbitrary on purpose so that obsessive nerds don't try to argue that the measurements of the galaxy are all wrong?

I've been thinking of the units as meters.

In terms of speed boosting, etc, it's complicated. The combat style now affects shown speed, which is part of why the cap change. But essentially you're right.
