just a thought but maby a neat thig to add would be the ablity to change the weapons on the fighters (one slot) so, instead of the basic weaps maby add a pcannon or w/e or just have a certian pool of weapons for fighters only.

i like the idea, but fighters currently have 2 weps. looks like weak p-cannons, and a missile or bomb payload of 1-2 shots worth.
a slot-based mod system for fighters would be sweet. i like that.

If the idea would be to change fighters please consider these ideas.
First, knock the time to launch down by one fifth. They only make a couple of attacks and return to the mothership anyway, make them more of a deterrent.
Second, add an option, to be able to launch fighters for carrier cover. Todays aircraft carriers have a continuous C-A-P why cant the dreads and stations not have the same option?

From what one admin said in the past, they are giving fighters less capabilities limiting it to cannon/interceptor/bomber.
But yah giving fighters more capabilities would make the game a ton more interesting and give more power to stations+dreads. It also encourages people to run around with long ranged based ships. Making a more complex and teamwork based game.

true but the real power of the fighters is in there missles and bombs the cannons those fighters have need to be a lil stronger at least i think so and changing the wepons on the fighters / bombers is a awsome idea the idea of neut bombers has come up more then a few times . i say go for it
