I don't think WHs and HMAs can work in conjunction though. That'd be pretty cool if it would and make Support Stations true deep-space Fleet Support.
It's just a hope, I don't think the devs would ever implement that.

I would honestly love a tanked up station supply ship, with only PD as firepower

Nope. Half of the time I fly a station, I am just supplying people anyway

I would see one issue with having both an HMA and JD as someone could use 2 WH or 2 JD's on it. If those were unchangeable slots then it would be just fine. Heres the other factions and the changed ICC one.
UGTO Supply Station
Rank: Fleet Admiral
Badges: Platinum Supply
4 armor slots (all facing)
5 reload drones (all facing)
8 CL (2 each facing with 270 arc, same as any other station)
2 QST (all facing)
2 Aux Generators (L/R)
1 WH Device
1 IE drive Station
4 Fighters
3 sensors (2 ECCM 1 Scanner)
Kluth
Rank: Fleet Admiral
Badges: Platinum Supply
4 armor (all facing) note: I think this is normal for Kluth stations
5 reload drones (all facing)
8 Disruptors (see above)
4 Assault Disruptors (see above, so that 3 fire on any side)
2 SI (all facing)
2 aux generators (L/R)
1 WH Device
1 Psi Drive Station
1 Cloaking Device
3 Fighters
2 sensors (1 scanner 1 ECM)
ICC Supply Station
Rank: Fleet Admiral
Badges: Platinum Supply
2 armor (all facing)
4 active shields (L/R/F/A)
4 aux shield gens (L/R/F/A)
8 CL (same facings as the Line Station)
2 IC (all facing same mounts as Support Station)
2 aux generators (L/R)
1 WH device
1 IE drive Station
4 Fighters
4 Sensors (3 ECCM 1 scanner, same mounts as Support Station)
The Kluth version would have a little more firepower as per the faction itself. The core weps are an almost must have on a station for defensive purposes, same goes for fighters.
These ships would replace the current Support Stations but not remove them. This gives 2 station choices at Fleet admiral and if issues persist move the Support Station to Grand Admiral.
The Current Support Station is more font line support. This Supply Station is ment for deep space as a rally point for damaged ships coming in from battle.

I dunno abt the lot of you, but IMO, stations should be configured as the fleet support bases that they are instead of being the assault juggernauts/tanks that they are currently employed as.
The juggernaut role should go to the dread.
In any other Sci-Fi shows I've seen, stations are usually vulnerable when attacked by the enemy. Not so true in DS is it? A single station can hold its own against several dessies or cruisers. Only when 2 or 3 dreads appear that it starts to get worn down, and even then it will deal at least one of the dreads a world of hurt. One on one with a dread, the dread loses.
Something is wrong when a nicely mixed fleet of dess, cruisers and a dread flagship gets jumped by 2 stations and is completely thrown into disarray.

Exactly. DreadStationSpace.
I don't mind tons of dreads honestly. They make for epic battles.
But when the fleet majority are stations.... LOL....

Obviously this would replace current Support Stations, and make the Battle Stations the missile spammers~

The support station as said above should be limited to only basic PD so it cant be used as a "Juggernaut", And for "Defensive" purposes the station should have a fleet with it ,To Support in the first place, which would act as the defence for the station. (This would also force people to have to work together when using a support station.)
