How about the Alarishi _Celerity_ class BC's, with Thrust 8 and a couple
of Class 4's?
2 Class 3's do 2d at 24-36", none from 36-48", whereas the Class 4, same
mass, does 2d at 24-36" and 1d from 36-48".  Now, if you let him get
inside
24", you have a problem--that's why they're Thrust 8.
I agree with you, though, that Class 2's are better than Class 3's--but
it depends on your thrust.
