Ideally, I'd love to have a high-speed cannon "frigate" and be able to skim within cannon range at an oblique angle, fire a burst, turn away, and wear down an enemy ship. Maybe my current ship is overshielded/undergunned - 11 armed turrets and 43k shields (my previous ship might have been 6 turrets and 10-20k shields), but I have no room for more guns.
