You seem to contradict yourself when you agree about the Class change
But giving General Class free access to Pathfinders is a definite NO NO they already have enough with Fuel Reduction, Speed (plus the ability to have 5% increments in speed) and not to mention the percent losses from combat getting returned
@Ghost Blade from what you are posting it seems that I know a hell of a lot more than what you do
Expedition Bonus ((1.5*universe economic speed) multiplier to resources (excluding dark matter) and ships gained during expeditions)
Planet Size (+10% larger planet size on colonisation)
Expedition Debris Fields (Debris fields created on expeditions will be visible in the Galaxy view.)
+2 expeditions
Fewer expedition enemies (-50% chance)
Increased Inactive Plunder (75% loot from inactive players)
Our ship speed is nothing compared to these. Fuel savings are not important because there is already a 50% discount in the universes, 25% of the remaining value is nothing. An explorer travels the universe with the deuterium he collects all day long.
We will not leave the second fastest battleship and the second best hunter ship of the game to rot in system 16, they will take their place in the battlefields they deserve. Moreover, the general class deserves access to this ship with its 20% warehouse bonus because it is a battlefleet
