The current Geb can't be scaled up or down effectively, the dimensions are simply wrong. It's too skinny. As for giving the Geb a new model and changing it to a BC, the Order opted to keep their weird light carrier thing instead.

well the current Geb is unbalancable, due to its shape. As for upscaling or downscaling, a dev would be able to answer you

Number 1 for sure.

1. Take the tubes from submarine and apply it to more Osiris-like battle-axe nose. Pair them up at the sides of said nose.

Obviously, the launch tubes will have to be considerably much bigger than that, however they should remain part of the nose rather than nose itself.
2. Those wings are flat out weird to me. Jeremy told me they're supposed to be runways or something... Try hangar doors somewhere in the middle facing sideways, with a bigger/cargo doors below.
Middle's ship for hangar bay reference
3. Entire ship needs a better shape. Look at Osiris and how its thickness, decals, windows varies per section. Make it fatter, longer Osiris while still retaining its own identity. I found a couple of concepts laying around that you may find useful.

reference 2
reference 3
4. Go ahead and attempt to double up the Osiris standard engine. To keep it from becoming too tall for the intended bulkyness, make it vertical oval with twin cigars merged stacked on top of another.

I kinda like the V1 symmetrical, having a larger volume (well it looks like it) and more of the carrier feeling

v1-asymethric got ugly front
v1-symethric got huge docking bay half of the ship !?
v2 a submarine
why not combine all
take V1-asymethric + V2 front complex = perfect design
