I didn't find them that difficult I prioritize the lancers and use the fighters against them the rest of their fleet gets distracted by the fighters but keep moving then the golans chew through them.

yeah I do so too, But it's when they throw 4 or 5 successive fleets of around 300 total strikes, lancers, dreadnoughts, and carracks att one planet it gets extremely annoying and actually powerful. What makes it even more annoying is that it takes soo long to win those fights as the AI just keeps throwing them at you. Also sometimes you can't even click the ships because of all the TIEs

Yeah, those swarms suck.  Depending on the planet's situation, I'll often just eat the loss in space because I'm sick of doing the battle over and over again.  The AI can't do a thing against a determined NR ground defense, and it doesn't tend to repeatedly attack on the ground as much as it will in space.

yeah. It usually only does one or two Massive attacks on the ground and then they leave it alone for a few minutes

I would say it's a toss up between: Crimson Command Victory II Class Star Destroy (including the 13x), Nebula Class Star Destroyer, Imperial II Class Star Destroyer and Praetor Mark II Battle Cruiser.

Very har question here, it would be easier for me to name my least favorite ship but I'll try.

I like the most three ships:
1. VSD1. My absolute favorite of all time. Verstile ship that can effectively fight against ships of it's price category and hold it's own against fighters (what a pity that in Balance and Flavor submod it spawns one fighter and one bomber instead of two fighters, since I found TIE Bombers pretty useless).

2. Venator. As much as I love ships with missiles I love carriers and most of time building my fleets around this ship no matter who I am playing for: IR or PA.

3. Endurance for the reason stated before about Venator.

I definitely agree. the VSD1 is one of the best, if not THE best of its class in destroying fighter squadrons by itself. I certainly prefer the VSD1 to the VSD2 or even the ISD1.

That being said, my very top spot would have to go to the ISD2. The ISD is such a staple to the Empire in general, and the ISD2 is a great improvement to the original.

Yeah I prefer VSD1 to the VSD2 especially in the FTGU early game because they are multifunction. However, Crimson Command is definitely superior than either.

This is true. I suppose I forgot to consider them because they're only available in the 4th era, which only has one campaign dedicated to it other than the multi-era campaigns. (although, I do love me some Reunification)

Actualy, not. Crimson Command is steroid version of VSDII and it is not as versatile as VSDI. And I would easily trade Ion cannons and tons of turbolasers for missiles since IR have hard time with NR's fighters.

Praetor II for me. Seems a bit odd that The Empire never had much love for it despite the heavier firepower involved...
