How to get powerful, big ships and not to allow too many people to use them
Powerful capships are doable - fo course thay are
Ship restrictions will be way harder... Massive amounts of admin work = big noes.
No... I wouldn't get the shield thingie done as it is. In fact - I'd do the opposite. Increase the Regen! And...hmmm
Oh, that's a funny idea
Remove the automatic shield restore and make a "second chance" possible only via batteries.
THEN - there'd have to only be enough fighters to keep up the dropping speed (The sheild's capacity would't play asa role as it does now) And once it's done - stuff goes downhill. Not "DOH! it recharged just when I fired my Snova BUEE!!!!"
