Carriers

from Sins2 Forums

This topic is on Carriers. Currently, I dont feel there is much separation with bringing fighter/bomber support to a fleet between the Capital Ship Carrier and the Light Carrier. I always felt that the fighter/bomber squadrons on the Capital Carrier were to small. I feel it needs to be around 6. That way you can specilize the carrier more as Combat Air Support role, Attack role, or balanced. The light carrier is fine where its at. 

The Carrier should also stay back out of range from enemy fire, and the missile battery should be able to be launched as a stand-off weapon. Right now, it stays close to the Carrier so to get it in a position to actually be more supportive and not just an extra defensive weapon if the Carrier stays by it. So it can be used more strategically and make the enemy focus on and not just your Carrier group it if it was launched near research labs, resource structures etc..

This way your Carrier group can stay out of harms way from defensive platforms while fighters and bombers do their thing.

Thanks for the feedback!

Have you looked at adding hangar components to your Sova carriers? They can get pretty beefy.

When you add components is it visualized?

Not currently. I meant beefy in stats and performance.

Component changes are visually reflected on Starbases and Titans. It theory in could be on any unit if we find the time. Modders also have control over this as well.

I tried the component for additional hangars. I think it hits what I was wanting. Thank you!

Glad to hear it! Being able to further personalize the capital ships through the component system has been pretty rewarding during my own playthroughs, though all the more painful when you lose a ship that is high level AND has components! x_x  

Such is the nature of war.

I hope you guys find the time! I think that's a great extra incentive, and a big cool factor, to include components.
