I pray the old Zepher makes a return in 4.87, its a ship I miss.
I would also like to see some new super collony mover ships that are say slim but say 4x longer than any barge.... Segments can be delinked but you can add to them too...
I do however feel some of the ships are getting stale so their needs to be a shakeup, something more competative (this does not mean more guns, maybe less actually).
Could their be a new way to move from system to system other than conventional Jump Gates, Jump Holes (and I'm not taking jump drives here). Maybe is these superships or barges can fly out of any system ie they are 100k from any planet or station then can launch a super cruise star drive which takes them to the next system in say 10 mins (say 3000kms) however the added hazard of ion or dark matter storms could attack ship systems (or maybe a new unknown rarely beatable interstellar space dwelling force...as was in the original Elite a game that was the fore-father to our dream game?).
