Thanks! I am a hardcore military SF fan, so making this idea was easy. I took inspiration mainly from the 1955 book Starship Troopers. Another aiding factor was the Titans from Battlefield 2142, which were giant floating platfroms that had drop pods, a landing bay, and several missile turrets. Also, the "Carriers" will hopefully become the center of air engagements, drawing in enemy ESFs and Galaxies, for some added gameplay options. However, I do not think they should be distructible, just that a dedicated group of pliots could pin down the vehicle bays. This would force Outfits who were standing around on the ship to eject via Drop Pod and aid their comrades in battle. If you have any other questions, please post them. I will get back to you as soon as possible.
