For one thing, it is considerably cheaper than the battleship when you consider its power, not to mention its generous forfeit value. With built-in ability of 2, this ship is halfway toward being able to draw a battle destiny. All the Republic Cruiser needs is a single pilot, like Phylo Gandish or Ric Olié, and it becomes a solid power 6 plus a battle destiny. This starfighter even reduces the effectiveness of your opponent's battleships by reducing their battle destiny draws by 1.
