Hi everyone! I was thinking that the Freelancer world is kind of like the naval warfare of WW2 in the sense that we are not locking on to targets across the systems and raining Tomahawks and Harpoons on them from vertical launch systems and is about capitol ships closing to the rang of the their big guns (also the fighters and the bombers have to get close, no equivalent of cruise missiles). So if this is the case why don't destroyers have a complement of some torpedo tubes to shot in spreads at the enemies from long rang. Now I know this idea is going to hated on so hear me out. These torpedoes would not be fast, but would be very powerful and have long ranges (they would be very evadable). For all of you that have played Battle Stations Midway you know that this is a good way to distract the captain of a capitol ship from air strikes because they have to maneuver around the torpedoes (the computer never does a good job in my opinion). Or sometimes you can shoot spreads that will make the ship stop going on its course which lets you battleships have easier shots on the target. Hell, you could make daring suicide charges in a destroyer. Now I have never taken part of an RP battle but I think that this could add a lot to a RP battle (like what happened in the battle of the Samar Sea). So what do you all think about this. I couldn't ever model them but if someone did, they would be very long ranged, slow moving, slow refire, and A LOT of explosive power.
