Of Junkers and Capital Ships

[Rudo]

I've been told not to say much, but I felt the need to give a tidbit of info... From what I hear, the salvage frigate is not a capship, but rather a transport. A very well defended transport, but a transport nonetheless.

I'm all for junkers using more transport/freighter/fighter/bomber type vessels as opposed to caps. We're getting a reskinned collector in 4.85 which looks completely awesome, and honestly capships arent exactly built to operate well in debris fields.

I've also heard that there are buffs being done to freighter-class ships, whether they're combat or trading buffs I dont know, but I think it would be interesting to focus junkers more on freighters than anythign else (considering nobody else uses them right now, really)... combat freighters fit the junkers very well IMO - room for cargo, but also not weak in combat.

I'm fully aware the salvage frigate isn't going to be a full-fledged capital and won't hold a candle to dedicated warships. This is why we're getting a super-awesome bomber, and also have the meanest combat freighter in the game.
