This was my reply to the Magical Ship Voucher thread, however it got me thinking...
Also, and this is the more likely scenario, modularity: imagine an Aegis Retaliator with a quartet of Aegis Warlock Modules... If not, why not? same company, there is space in the hull or outside on the hull.... Or a Connie with a Aurora LN seat, or a 300i with the pair of 350R engines. DO you think that swapping componants between ships in the same series could be possible?
If everything really is as modular as we hope it is going to be, could the above actually be possible? As ships could be dockable the mechanic to combine hulls is almost complete anyway and who cares about some graphical clipping at the joining points if it gets you a unique, personal ship built to be what you want it to be...?As the voucher ticket thingy is magical, I'd go for a pair of 350R, then melt them together in a hodgepodge way to have somthing a little like the duel fuselage mustang of WW2

In difference to the F82, I would join at the cargo area, so that I could access both pilot seats, and for good measure I would also add another pair of engine pods and another generator so it would make 8 engines in all.
It would all be about going as quickly as possible in a straight line. Being an Origin ship the factory would not do it themselves, it would be far too ugly so with the amount of 350R's written off and scrapped for replacement from the insurance, i should be able to get hold of the parts and fuselages...
Someone make this happen for me, please.
