Also it shouldn't have much of an effect of strategic combat, only a bit of one on tactical.

It won't have any effect on strategic combat.

Looks like stuff like hull/armor/shields/supplies have pretty insane numbers. 4000 shields for a cruiser 200 for a small fighter? wow...

Really nice screens BTW, makes me even more impatient for the game to come out

Edit- I noticed one of the screens seems to have a SEIV ship design system, rather then the Starfury style one??

The game was at max tech so the numbers for everything are weird. For the ship design, the summary is a la SE:IV.

I noticed the "Intrepid" cruiser design shown seemed to be rated 1000 kT, and the components and armor seemed to add up to more than that.

Nope, they add up to 1000.

I see "Cruiser (1,000 kT)" in the "Size" box, and then "Hull Structure" at "6475 kT" and "Armor" at "5380 kT", which add to 11,855 kT, no?

Yeah. This needs clarification on the game. I hope that there is not much questionable/ambiguous information like this throughout the game. Newbies (customers and future fans) will be even more confused.

How is it different from SE:IV? A cruiser of 500kT might have much more than 500kT of structure (i.e. hitpoints right?)
