OMG finally! So excited!
I must admit that I cannot comment at this time on specific stats b/c I haven't patched in the new stats to eft.
However, I will comment on the general direction for these ships:
Sansha:
Props for using afterburners as a theme for this race, I like the unique idea. Honestly, I'm not sure where the Phant and Succ need to go and I don't have any revolutionary ideas. Be sure to give them an agility buff and tracking buff to make use of those ABs.
Blood:
I practically drooled when I read what you had in store. IMO the bhaal is the most powerful ship in the game for <10 man combat. Giving it the "old neuts" would make it even more... awesome! As for how this will affect the ash, I actually like the ash in it's current state. It's not as underpowered as you think. However this ship too will benefit from the "old neuts" as I often ask my augs to cap transfer the ash because making it stable with sufficient tank is impossible. Simply adding the "old neuts" to the current ash will be a sufficient buff because you won't need the remote cap. Any1 else that thinks it would need any more is blind. The webbing bonus switching to range? heh, you know how 90% webs break dread combat on the small scale. For this class I don't think it would harm them much. Making the switch to range bonus is a good move.
Guristas:
I kinda scratched my head at this one. Many people think Guristas ships should jam, but we all know how much you hate ECM. Idk y reducing the number of drones but giving them effectively the same effectiveness would change things much, unless you want to stealth nerf all drone hp so that the gruistas drones would be more resilient to smartbombs. Damage type change is pretty uninteresting.
Serp:
This class is fine as it is. You saw how hard it was to try to change them. I foresee large community backlash if you do, but sometimes things need to be changed so dread blapping is not so broken.
Angel:
People think the cyna needs a nerf. I disagree because any joe can take an 800 plate thorax with a nano in the low and slingshot the crap out of it. What I'm saying is that it does not need a nerf because you balanced other things around it. Honestly, the cyna isn't "worth it" to me anymore because of this, but maybe I'm not seeing something. The dram and the mach: They are good where they are for the same reason. The frig overhaul and Marauder rebalance really put these ships near the same level, and i feel comfortable with where they are now.
