Private Yachts
« on: October 31, 2012, 08:21:01 PM »
What if we had individualy controled ships the Rooks could actualy get things done :banana: :banana: :banana:
But in all seriousness we should have individualy controled battleships, destroyers, submarines, and transports
There would be little work on HTC's part, just add a bridge, the same controls as a CV, and the ability to control you ship's speed
They would need to add a new perk point catagory but wouldn't it be fun to try shinking enemy ships

It would/could be fun, but it would probably take too long to drive your ship 2 sectors at current CV speeds. Also...it will never happen.

I would like to see Destroyer Escorts introduced.Simply a smaller version of a DD with only 2 5 inch guns.Controled like a PT.But I would make them spwn from ports.

As long as they were perked and had limited amount of ammo, that would be fine by me.

I know guys that will sit in a 5 inch gun for 2-3 sectors while enjoying beers and such party favors. I say that if someone wants to do it, give them the tools.

Could you imagine the epic destroyer duels? "You suck man! Meet me in 11,3 sector in 4 hours!"

Read the Last Stand of the Tin Can Sailors and then come back and say DDE's don't sound too dangerous.

Give them spawns like the GV's
It would work like a CV, you could simply set it on autopilot and wait for it to sail, then once it gets were you need it come back and blow stuff up
