What strength is the nebula.  Remember that the maximum speed of your ships is determined by their armor vs the nebula level.  A strength 5 nebula would give you a maximum speed of 500km/s per level of armor.  for your ships that would be 2000km/s as their maximum speed.

Before am wins the battle on a nebula,ive lost 2 private ships inside,then am coming at Jumppoint with 2 Destroyers..precursors jumped near my DD and ive lost all 2 DD's before am return any fire,then return inside nebula with all ships..this bastards,ive think:)..
So am build up some ships dedicated to nebula's Warfare,one are Fast firgate Apache (design above) and when ive 8 ready am try to follow enemy's in nebula system.With a good early warning craft with me am lucky to found them,and destroy ther fleet.

my fast Frigate give a good job.

outside nebula precursor use awesome missiles,inside a nebula they use a railguns,250mm V5/C5 and 2 my FF fall under this rapid fire..

This is something that I had been wondering about.

I take it that the NPRs/Precursors take into account the fact that they are in a Nebula and design the ships accordingly?

What does your intel screen say about the ships that you fought? Does it give a reading on the armour level? I wonder if they were all railguns or if they had missiles but since they couldn't be fired you can't tell.
