Yeah, but I meant in terms of functions? English isn't my native language and, while I do have a particularly good comprehension of it, I'm almost completely clueless when it comes to ship designations, and have almost no idea what exactly those names signify... XD

Well, Destroyers seem to be the frontline ship, the smallest and more numerous of the capital ships. Freighters are cargo ships, main purpose being transferring goods and people to one place and another. Light/Heavy Cruisers are the heavy warships of the fleet, the bruisers, and Carriers/Battleships are the largest ships we got, the juggernauts of the fleet.
