The Furl is a step change from the traditional Bolitic large warship which tended to be heavily armed and protected but lumbering and slow. Thus the Dinos have developed ships and tactics to use speed and agility against the Bolitic. However the Furl is said to be much more agile, though not as much as a Dinomark or even a large DDS ship like the Panther 35A. Its speed and agility however is easily enough to negate a lot of Dino advantage and tactics.
One interesting aspect is that the Dinos think the Furl will be a large strategic headache for the Bolitic too as for the next 8-10 or so years at least it will operate in a fleet that is dominated by much slower and lumbering ships than it. The Bolitic may be forced to hold back on fully deploying the Furl until they have sufficient numbers to form specialist flotillas a Dino strategic is reported to have said.
