The Emalgha Warship is whooping its competetors. I don't even think the Emalgha frieghter has got "1" vote yet.

I won't vote for any. They all suck. My UE Destroyer could easily tear into a fleet of 'em.
As for pros and cons:
Emalgha Fighter:
Pros: Lots of space for a fighter (When you get rid of the bulky weäps).
Cons: Slow for a fighter, poor against shields, little shields or armor.
Emalgha Freighter:
Pros: None.
Cons: Almost no weapons, no space to add weapons, little shields or armor.
Emalgha Warship:
Pros: Decent space (When you get rid of the bulky weäps).
Cons: Mediocre armament, low shields and armor (For a warship).

May the world never rest in peace.

Yes but human vs. AI isn't a fair fight. I like all Elmalgian ships cept' the fighter.

The only thing Emalghans stand a chance against is Voinians because they damage armor primarily. The ships could be outfitted to fight against shields, but you couldn't win against any Crescent or Strand warship, and you'd be too slow to fight UE vessels (Although you would have a range advantage).

Correct! That is why they only attack Voinians! I think the Emalgha are a relatively peaceful race, and thats why they don't have very good ships, because they are peaceful and don't like this Voinian war thing. Also, since the Emalgha are peaceful, they have only developed specially designed weapons to be used on the Voinians.

If I had to vote, I'd say (As the offical Voinian) the Emalgha Fighter is best. I know the Emalgha Warship has more weapons but the Emalgha Fighter is more easaly produced then the Warship, and it is much harder to hit. One Turret Rocket can effectivly kill it but it is hard to get the one hit. Also the Neutrond are almost too slow to get it. If it was equiped with a REAL turret and a few of them started circling a Voinian ship it would be curtins for the Voinian ship.

Emalgha Freighter
I know it sound stupid but buy one and you can do the best trade route available Emalgha to Leito (or whatever it's called) at one of the planets metal is medium equipment is high and on the other metal is high and equipment is medium. Makes tons of money since the emalgha ship has quite a big hold or just do it with a fleet of MHF :-).
hmmmm... my favorite would have to be the freighter. I just love how defensless it is to my mighty powerful Igazra, named "Mighty Yellow Penis"..... I also love how the freighter makes such a nice explosion after I get it to 0% armor
