Roger that, but due to his lack of evidence presentation in a multitude of topics and posts I'm going to elect to ignore his posts for his double standards not to mention his own rudeness, he just comes off as someone posting just to inflate count and he isn't exactly adding anything constructive at all.

Do cardassian "torpedoes" weaken over the distance (warhead = fuel)?
Do the Cardassians use warp to travel close to c but below c like the UFP can do?

If yes, especially to the second one, I don't see how this wouldn't be a butchery on the Imperial navy.

Simply put, in system, a cardassian warship would have the advantage in both range and mobility, right?

The Empire's unique counter to that would be the use of agile bombers equipped with their own FTLs, and being refined enough to allow for small jumps.

If the Cardassians fight DS9 style, it's different. But we know that they can also fight differently, and a simple variation in the battle style will be enough, because the Empire doesn't have that variation. What I mean is that if the Cardassian fight like 10% of the time with long range methods, they'll get easy victories.

DS9 ended being DS9 because all ships are fast and agile at warp on either sides, so I guess there wasn't much use to spend energy in warp, either sub c or over c, and could instead adopt "turtle" styles: all in shields and weapons, with little mobility.
