flagships

[Jinx]

modifying the skin ( like applying the factions heraldic figure ) shouldn t be too hard. - but its a quesiton of how the server copes with the extra space that different versions take up.

when its about the power of those ships - i suggest only very very slight upgrades. ( like 1.000.000 more power on a battleship or 100.000 more armor. but not more turrets or turn speed or anything. <--- those figures look like very much, but 100k armor is like 1 supernova only 4 in terms of cap8 armor - and 1mio power is 1/7 more than the usual. )

and - a flagship should be an option of choice for those that do not have a guard system. - its mostly about the playstyle. - all in all, flagships should be granted and taken away like guard systems. they are faction property and not player property.

all in all, they could make some good roleplay. ( a flagship has not gotto be a battleship. liberty rogues for example would have a destroyer like their new york base, gaians could aswell have a captured gunship etc. ) no need to think as big as possible - just special.

its nothing to "replace" current capital ships or a reason to nerf them in favour of flagships. - so that suggestion is completely non-related to the current capship discussion, but rather a developers discussion and game balance option for factions.
