Wow, so many replies! Sorry about the wait, I was on break. The Carrier system is both a "capital ship" and a command point. It deploys troops via drop pods and Galaxies. However, it also has AA turrets and serves as a mobile spawn and resupply station for ESF squadrons, Galaxies, and Liberator gunships. It is made for both long-term battles requiring constant reinforcement, and for fast strikes against supposedly secure enemy-held areas. Despite these functions, its main purpose is to serve as a way to break the all-too-common "warpgate seige", where a faction's main armored and infantry units are located.
