ETD should be made up of old ships from previous rounds, with the same names of old rounds and maybe the same stats.

Stalwart and (I think) Paladin were r10 cath ships. Defender and Guardian are old EMP ships. Lancer, Fireblade, Broadsword are old xan ships without the geeky first part. Using old stats, I'd argue, is completely inappropriate. The oldest stats have different guns, agility etc. r10s had no init or type. After that we had subvert, and until r24 or so we had no multiple targets. Plus it would **** balance.
This is about as close to what you want as we can get - correct me if I'm wrong!
Right now I quite like the set visible in the public manual, and don't like the beta set. The public manual needs some boosts to EMP vs xand and terran, otherwise I'm pretty happy.
