New ship plans

[ACER_SPACER]

I support the Frigate class of ships. Frigates are more like the scalpels of combat. There are different types, and they all fulfill one specific role. Such as a Flak frigate. It would be great against fighters and bombers, but is useless against capital ships, and bombers would also be able to take it out, like all other caps. Another one would be the aforementioned Torpedo frigate. Sole purpose is to blow up heavy capital ships, therefore useless against fighters and bombers. The Assault frigate is another good idea, a frigate designed to do some heavy hitting against smaller or medium caps, but unable to defend itself from fighter attack. A suicide frigate might be fun as well. Designed for the sole purpose of exploding and destroying everything around it, this frigate would be piloted by people who will be put to death anyways, so no waste. It would run into a formation of capital ships and detonate its explosives, doing heavy damage to the capital ships. The tradeoff would be that it would be very vulnerable to attack.

Here is a quote from my thread about carriers a while ago, back in august:

Right, it's definately gonna happen, it's just going to take some time to do. I need to add an invisible base to every system ingame and edit the insides if said bases, and Cannon is working on the plugin. I talked to Igiss and he likes the idea, so, it's just a matter of time.

That should put to rest people's mumblings about carriers.
