there will be more unit specific upgrades in future versions. They go together with some other new features you may see in v4

The third dimension is unlikely to get back into the game as long as it is that bad controllable in armada. The game "Homeworld" tries to manage a real 3d space and does that quite well, but the attempt in Armada2 isn't that good, so we removed it

We will try to get more advanced formations for later versions (like smaller and faster vessels flanking the battleships). But that's a lot of work and i hope you understand we cannot do everything at once
Additional commands like scripted actions (patrol, then attack, then repair..) are not possible in Armada. At least we think so at the moment

The will be a few unique fighter carriers in Fleetops. The first ones will be released in v3 like the Avalon Class Carrier. There were a few discussions about the fighter-in-Startrek topic in the past weeks and i think they should play a part, but a small one

about the fighters- just mod the weapons textures to look like fighters
