Getting back into the game.

[TheNalais]

So, I'm just getting back into the game, I only played for the max of a week prior before life kicked back in and my gaming went to non existent, so my question is for a soloing style of playing, whats the best combination? I would like something that deals with heavy cruisers (I think thats what they are called) So whats the best one to choose from out of sci/eng/tact? Thanks for the input.

The classes are connected to the ships in a classical way (although you can make any combination, a tactical officer can still fly a cruiser):
Engineer - cruiser
Tactical - escort
Science - science
