    The Problem with Capital ships

    Yeah, I did. The Idris has almost no fighter protection.

    The Problem with Capital ships

    The main problem with the Idres is it's size and weight. Idris ($1250.00) weighs 1,610,110 Kg and 239m, The Idris' fixed main antiship gun is the S5 Zestroyer Rail Gun; the engines 8 TR5, maneuvering thrusters 8 TR3; guns: 6 S3 manned turrets, gimbaled 1 S5 with no more than 4 S2 missiles...

    I agree absolutely! I think you would need a support fleet around them, (just the real thing)!

    Got you, so we don't know how many people will actually be active, huh? But that size fleet from so few!

    The Problem with Capital ships

    You're kidding! In that case, it doesn't matter if we lose a dozen or so in a battle. In that case we can outgun anyone! Cash some in and get battleships. Man, if you're serious, we have a huge fleet! We should take our home world from the Vanduul.

    The Problem with Capital ships

    I hadn't thought of EMP's, that's true. We could use Vanguard Sentenials hidden amongst the Wardens.

    Great!!!!! We need lots of "Red Shirts". We have a Space Marines Section , I think. But, you're right we need that division. Maybe you could make their division emblem!

    The Problem with Capital ships

    Vanguards do some quick passes, followed by Redeemers to take out any fighter escort. Then the Retaliators move in and take out the Capital ships, move in a cork-screw pattern, in and out of the range of an individual turret. Then a bunch of Dragonflies with Space marines do the clean-up...

    The Problem with Capital ships

    I had imagined a fleet somewhat like this, with no capital ships, everyone capable of jump point travel, I would probably add in a few Drake Heralds or an Endeavor outfitted for long range scanning. They could probably take down a few capital ships.

    The Problem with Capital ships

    Is their expense (cost/profit ratio). A good YouTube video is here: If we compare ourselves to Xplore- the only organization larger than ours(12,477 total members with members to affiliates ratio of 1:3, we appear to have more full members), they report having: "XPLOR’s fantastic community...

    are you going to buy an Argo?

    I agree, offering a call service that would take >5%, on a per planet basis would be the way to go. Anyone wants to organize this, I'm sure there's software out there to do it efficiently. Once you got it running, it could handle itself for the most part. Having the primary concession for, say...
