It does fit the Phantom role alright, might be worth looking at snub designs as well to go alongside it.
We can't really take the other servers into account too much usually as the factions on this server take precedence. Factions here influence and change how their NPC faction does things and can affect the mod directly, unless they are horrifically railroaded.
Since there is no Phantom faction here though and there are on other servers, it's mostly about the other servers at this point.
WAit so let me get this straight. You are adamant about putting this ball of awsome in for a faction that no longer exists and likely wont, since they dont contribute any positive interaction? furthermore, your main argument for such is to worry about other communitys than the one its going INTO?!
big old WTF from me on that one. Why not make it a frigate, heavy armor, transport sheild, lotta tranport guns, make it another rich-explorer type, until such a time a faction in need of it arises. I cant see that happening anytime soon.
But to be honest, if I was a futuristic ship manufacturer and someone presented this to me as a blueprint, I would tell you to go back to the drawing board.
The thing is extremely thin and fragile looking, and judging from the renders alone it looks like a Gunboatish size.
The thing with large spaceships is, the more surface area an object has, the more pressure is applied to it. So naturally, the larger something is, the thicker hull plating it needs to prevent itself from collapsing into itself.
This thing looks like it would be about 90% armour, not a lot of room for interior design.
The only pressure being exerted is that of the air on the inside. A vacuum sucks, it doesn't blow(The meaning of the word, not the appliance!). The only way anything in space would collapse in on itself is during drastic venting. And with a ship like this, I believe it has emergency countermeasures for something like that.
