I have one question- Bug light cruisers? mass=40?? bit small? more like a DD to me. I prefer woking to a mass of 60 (ish) for myself. Also, as Oerjan.Ohlson pointed out, for a FT design for the CLE, try more PDS and no CL.1 bats, makes a more interesting (if severly limited) design.

They may be a bit small, but it's necessary for the sense of scale. If they're too big, they become too effective for a "throwaway" unit. For Allied ships to be comparable they just require building using similar masses. It's not necessary to be strict in the FT class interpretations. (look at Honor Harrington; it's more of a log scale than a linear scale in the class differences).
