Lake Huron, while fitting for the line, would be a pain in the neck to balance I think. It's just an oversized LibDread, not a true carrier. Liberty Carrier MK2 looks about right, although I'm worried if that thing will fit formations properly. Still, lot easier to size that to something that's easy to hit and carry a bazillion light turrets.

From a time when all seems lost, from a dead man to a world, without restraint, unafraid and free.

Honestly the current one doesent handle formations very well either AD. Tends to flatten its wingmen ...
that being said, craptons of light turrets are far less effective than WELL PLACED light turrets.
a 2k range barrage is useless if they: A, all are offset to weird arcs and B, cant hit their target. Bomber nova range, 3.8k (and more if launching using thruster)
Rather have 8 each side than 16 with stupid positions.
Not to mention if its meant for support then i suppose giving it enough primary and heavy slots to do so wouldent be out of order either. Lets face it it aint dodging anything launched its way.
It either needs lotta long-range firepower or armor out the wazoo to survive any fight though. Agile thingy this is not.
