Are the Manticore vessels (ie 3-km long super dreadnoughts) different than they were in the books? I'd think a wall of battle using those ships could even give an SDF class vessel a run for it's money. And how do grasers (standard energy armament for Manticorian vessels) work? They seem to be able to penetrate shields in the book series, but since UF uses many different technologies, I'm not sure how they stack up against other vessels, IE Starfleet/GENOM/WDF.
