They are a highly-specialized and trained, however small organization. So they shouldn't have alot of ships, but rather a small amount of better ships.
very heavy fighter and bomber I think everyone should have. We have a dreadnaught, now the only thing I think there's to add is something in-between the dreadnaught and the fighters, and maybe a gunboat/gunship. But that's it.
Order didn't have a dreadnought..Order only have Osiris..(Osiris is not dreadnought.look at its hull....)
yeah, after some thoughts, I think this is all the order needs:
-1 very heavy fighter
-1 bomber
-1 gunship/gunboat
-1 cruiser
-1 Osiris class thing
but right now I think bomber is most important out of all of them.
I am working on an Order GB but since I have a lot to learn still and not a lot of time, I would feel ok with anyone making their own or helping me develop mine.
That's more than enough, and I doubt the Order would even need Cruisers. Gunboats serve well as mini-Osiris class ships. Light Fighter and Bomber are the most welcome ones ATM.
I don't think the order needs a light fighter, and a cruiser or a destroyer. Only the bomber, gunboat/ship and cruiser OR destroyer. This is a small organization, not a large house navy.
I was using a Talon once, Lancer, then I realised that the Nephthys is just superiour to it despite having the power to mount 6 Class 10 guns.
Really, The Order needs a bomber and gunboat at the least. We already have the smallest battleship type ship available and our ships are very heavily armored to begin with (save for the Talon but it's not vanilla).
A light fighter would be welcome for recon, but I highly doubt I would use it...since I'm only good in very heavy fighters.
