I know this a month old, however I'm not sure what race you would be comparing the federation ships to for balancing. I don't mind seeing game balance but removing one torpedo launcher from most fed ships is a big damage decrease.
The romulans may have slightly weaker ships but their torpedoes do more damage and they have the first strike capability with their cloaking which alone is a big advantage.
The dominion scouts and fast attack ships are out gunned, but their battle ships and battle cruisers have 100-200 more shielding then the fed equivalent and double or almost double the torpedo launchers.
The cardasians are slightly below the federation in about every aspect, however they are a more mass production type of ship play style. Maybe further reduce build and maintenance cost so they can field more units to over come the disparity in ship power.
The klingons are kind of in the same boat as the romulans, they might have a 100 less shields then the feds however they have the first strike capability with the cloak and they carry more weapons then the federations ships.
If your looking to tone down the federations ship damage, maybe just slightly reduce the the damage of their torpedoes then completely removing one launcher from their ships.
I guess the real issue is the chances of other races equivalent ships winning in a 1 v 1 fight. As in pitting cruisers against cruisers and see if the feds always win in that scenario. I would think the cloak would be a big advantage over the 80 or 100 more shields the feds have. Then again I'm not sure how the shield number applies when taking damage from other ships.
