Crossing the Enemy Fleets "T"

Admiral Ayako's fleet of 4 Kol class BBs led by a Dunov BC and @ 12 Kodiak CAs with a supporting fleet of 12 Percheron CVLs led by Vice Admiral McCailin was able to cross the "T" of a similiarly sized fleet of human ships last night.

The tactic actually works in this game, as most of your ships are able to fire on the enemies, while only a small percentage of them are within range. Ayako's ships kept moving while McCailin's fighters distracted the enemy's heavier units, we were able to cause extensive damage to their fleet, leading to the loss of seveal of their planets later in the year, and a decisive shift in the war. All without the loss of a single Miyamoto ship!

Admiral Ayako is now the toast of the Miyamoto Dominance! Her fleet started moving the instant they arived from phase space near Ao-5, unlike the unruled mob the enemy formed, Ayako's First Fleet formed in a line and destroyed 3 enemy battleships and an uncounted number of enemy frigates. Fleet command has stated that the two remaining useful planets in the system, Ao-3 and Ao-4 should fall soon, especially with the new Heavy Carrier Shinano being attached to her fleet as new Flagship of the Miyamoto Navy!

Soon we will bring the war to the enemy's doorstep, we will burn their worlds, destroy their industries, they will regret forever the day they attacked the Miyamoto Dominance!

What ships did the opposing fleet mainly consist of?

With Kols and their broadside guns this certainly seems nice. Not sure about Kodiaks. It's been said that TEC ships generally have their guns in front and Vasari ships to the sides, so when attacking aliens with a more generic TEC fleet, doing this would decrease the damage of both fleets. But Vasari should have much to gain from this against TEC.

Nothing has been said of the Advent, they probably have guns coming out of their rear ends too.

I just checked the manual. Nearly all of the Kol's weapons are chase armament. They've got a twice as many foreward guns as they do broadside guns (counting both sides). The only TEC ship that's really broadside intensive is the Akkan.
