I'd like to know how is it handled in RTW2.
In RTW1 it was absolutely best raider design possible - 2100t cruiser with long range, reliable engines and speed enough to run from all bigger ships. But I feel it wasn't really intended, but rather bug in the calculations between hull-engines-range, as amount of stuff available at 2100t was then again possible at around 3500t if memory serves right (I had not played some time waiting for RTW2 
). Early on, I could understand this as small steam-sail unprotected cruiser getting range from use of sails, while capable of 23 or so kts using steam engine, but later, 31-32kts long range ship in the size of a destroyer do not feel right.

Was it deliberate or bug?
