i have dreamed up a couple of suggestions. i have been thinking of reducing number count and reducing the overall power of the dreadnought down to a more competitive level to cruisers, and to stop Dreadspace.
Suggestion One: why not raise up the single standard armor plate strength to the level of two plates as it is now, and just only mount 4 plates of armor on a ship? ( 5 plates in the case of the EAD/TC) and for those that have only 4 armor slots now, have a lighter armor just for them, if possible. if it isn't, with the current modding system, just have a Light Standard Armor, and a Heavy Standard Armor. Light Standard raises up your ships maneuverability, but at a cost of 50%(or lower, depending on Developer input) lesser HP than Heavy Armor. Heavy Standard Armor brings your ship maneuverability down, but 50%(again, depending on Developer input) more HP to last longer in battles. keep Reflective and Ablative the same they are now, 20% less strength, but have their special properties unchanged.
Suggestion two: this one might be a bit longer. reduce the Dreadnought device count to 36 across all ships(taking in my Armor suggestion into account), reconfigure weapons and armor device counts to be more competitive, and be less of a clutter on your screen. i will write a ship layout change here, for suggestive purposes only.

4 Engine slots
1 Jump Drive slot
5 Armor slots
3 Aux Gen slots

1 HCL slot (right/left/fore)
3 SCL slots (full)

4 CL slots (all full slots)

3 ECM slots
2 generator slots
Command Dreadnought:
4 engine mounts
1 Jump Drive mount
4 Armor mounts
3 Bomb racks (right/left/fore)
8 CL mounts (4 full mounts, 3 left/right/fore, 1 rear/left/right)
6 cannons (3 front/left/right, 1 left/fore, 1 right/fore, 1 full)
1 tractor beam (full)
2 generator slots
1 build slots
2 ECM slots
4 Fighter slots
please take this into consideration, i did a lot of reaserch, math, and typing to make this. anyone that has access to Kluth and ICC please do the same if they wish.

I like this Idea 
And after flying scouts with reflective armor, I must say that the scout armor levels for reflective are a bit too high.. When it takes 2+ alphas to kill there is somethin wrong Possibly even just changing to 2 fore/aft, right/left armors will help on that one if the light armor cant be implemented.
(sry to hijack but living through point blank luth dread alphas as a scout is wrong)

Would be to make full arc armors then, makes more sense to, scouts being so small, they have an actual arc? their arc is like, a few gu. Rather then dread arcs being 50 gu

Go back to full arcs - if its really that essential & they're that weak, give them a 2nd ring.
