I can play on whichever side - but Oni, where are you finding all this information? If you could share your sources so I can look up BT space combat that'd be great - otherwise I'm going to end up playing my units like a Star Destroyer!

follow it through the reunification wars, then hit jumpships, aerospace, warships and follow links inside the description, it takes some reading and being willing to track through the poorly put together reference links but it's all there, some of it is just common sense
(I.E. Aquilla Class Jumpships being used as patrol boats. 10 it explains how they were pressed into service during the Reunification war. 2) it lists sales to the Tuarian government, 3) you look at the weapons load and tonnage and voila you have an under-powered escort, that is fir for little more than boarder patrol and protecting orbital satellites from fighters.)
Everything else is listed by Periphery Warships, going to the Taurian Concordt page and then following manifacturers to what they produce. (I.E. for fighter craft of the Taurian concrodt you are looking at Sabres, Lightnings, Chippewas and possibly the Thunderbird. for their Dropships they produced the Union and Leopard. the manufacturers listing even breaks it down into engines, weapons, armor types, mechs, etc)
Hope that helps
Note if you were asking for task force examples though, I just took standard formations of ships from world war 2 task forces and altered them to fit here. Basically using the Pacific Fleet Battles and adopting the US is the Star League and the Taurian Concordt is more like 1943 era Japanese forces which relied heavily on light cruisers and destroyers..
