If you could change one thing about discovery what would it be?

- Cruisers and battleships are only used by official factions. (Indies may use Gunboats)
- If a cruiser/bs is destroyed (outside from Connecticut), it will be transformed to a GB or smaller.

In a word: NO. I say this for purely selfish reasons seeing as how three out of my five characters are currently flying indie Cruisers and I have plans to purchase a battleship shortly. As a point of fact, I know several people who own indie capital ships and I am quite certain such a change would be devastating to all of us.

Now, I have noticed the lolwut cap-spamming problem as much as everyone and I heartily agree that it should be dealt with, but please, for the love of those who enjoy capship RP, do not ruin it for the rest of us.


Otherwise, if I could change something it would definitely be to beef up transports in terms of weaponry/armor/powerplant/etc... As it stands, pirates have an astonishingly easy job at robbing transports and even the supposedly-more-powerful Liners. I have posted in another thread previously about the creation of "battle transports" which are more combat-capable, but have severely reduced cargo space and a greatly increased pricetag.

However, seeing as how this is not likely to happen in the near future, I would also suggest the opposite: reducing armor/weapons/powerplant/etc... but vastly increasing the cargo space. I believe there was a suggestion somewhere for a mini-barge which would fit the bill quite nicely.

In any case, those are my thoughts on the matter.

-EDIT-
One last thing before I forget. Seeing as how the Resheph is a recon cruiser, should it not have some sort of more powerful scanner similar to, for example, the Spyglass scanner? Just a thought.
