i can see quite a few factions that would benefit from being given Hybrid ships like bulldog or gladiator.

Xenos and gaians would be able to build them and it would help the activity as these hybrid ships are really neat.

Gallic unlawfuls would most likely have one within the 3 main unlawful factions.

BHG would benefit from it and ive suggested it many times, as a vessel able to stop while packing the same firepower as a normal fighter is the ideal ship for bounty hunting.

Bulldog and Gladiator, and Werewolf, their not very well known. All of them are terribly good ships. and really scary, especially the werewolf as i remembered meeting one when i was code lootin with my trident.... back then, rogues was green to OC, so bomber armour, sluggish VHF speed, inferno and 5 archangels.... D:
But people dont see this, they dont see the terribly destructive power these ships has. All they see is "Weird, useless, ugly, bad powercores".... i think hybrids should be added to the game to more extent

Also, i fully agree with gunships, their the ideal shipclass for factions whom resources say it would be more productive to build many lighter crafts then few heavy ones... Like the Rogue/Molly gunship idea, i love that one and i really think they of all factions deserve to have a light GS.

battlebarges (combat transports) im not that happy with, sure we have shire and akegata or whatever its called. Both destructive in their own way.... But when i was in USI, we had a couple of members who could shoot down tridents in their CAU8 Adv. Trains... simply cuz the armour and power of Type 2 is overwhelming. Even with only 7 turrets its quite a brutal force. BTW/Ptrans/Train series/Shire/Akegata has nice arcs and should not be underestimated.
