You know, it could just be that the artist is envisioning a certain pattern / formation / mindset inherent to the race's battle doctrine when that sor of fleet image is used.

Or not, of course.

I like the irregular ships-at-various-distances-some-overlapping-each-other pattern used in the shipsets that came with the game Or maybe something out of Formations.txt... no, that would be confusing if you had a Bull fleet pictured as Flying V!
