Unpopular opinion: All non-FWG battleships are basically carriers because Freelancer battleships always served as FOBs for fighters, so instead of giving carriers 5 docking modules, number of docking modules should be based on their size. Bismarck/Tokugawa will certainly carry more fighters than Elbe. Something like 2 DMs for small battleships like Osiris or Elbe, 3 for medium battleships like Overlord or Dunkirk, 4 DMs for Bismarck, Atlantis, Ranseur, etc.; -2 DMs if the battleship has a FWG.

Instead of special carrier weaponry, all battleships should be able to decide whether they want to be anti-cap or anti-snub, and declare whether they are battleships or carrier by their actual loadout (= mission profile).
