I think the ships are different from vanilla, not necessarily OP, and is really nice to see them around the sector. As usual the AI uses some better than others and maybe that makes them seem OP, especially the new Remnant ships. My approach is this: just like in real life, there are Fiats, Fords, and Ferraris - all can be driven poorly or skillfully, it just depends on the driver in the end. I am of course a poor driver at best, but damn it's fun getting my ass handed to me! All the pretty explosions.....
