Them's some big ships ya got there...
I already made this point with the Hegemony's navy page, but if I had to choose, this one's a bit worse for oversized ships, no offence. Sure, the ships aren't always as large (capping at sixty kilometres), but really, sixty kilometres? And entire fleets of the things? Not only is that extremely hard to build something that big in the first place (and to make them by the hundreds would take resources I can possibly fathom), but from a tactical standpoint, bigger isn't always better. You would need a massive power source to run that thing, then enough food and supplies for the absolutely massive crew, and this is all before weapons and engines. You could technically fit a ton of weapons on it, but why? Do you have the space for the ammunition after all of the hundreds of tons of food you'd need for the crew for a prolonged campaign? Would the superstructure be able to handle the strain? Would the power source be able to power all of the weapons? Think about it. I find its better to just build many smaller ships (usually 3 kilometres maximum) to make up a more diverse, numerous, less fragile fleet. Just my two cents. :P
