Any chance for a combat tug support ship?

you know when fighters attack will they do as they did before where the circle the target but facing in the same direction or are they going to face the target when firing. because the in the pre-version it looks like that cardassian thing from the origianl armada 2

They fly real attack maneuvers and you cant directly command them they will patrol their given path

YES! Troopships are back! Construction ships are  safe from me no longer... *evil cackle* I love the design of the warfrigate!

Just for the record, am i right in thinking that the Borg will have no troopships, or will there be an option for it for relevant ships (like the assimilator with its auto-assim?).

Fighter's sound interesting too, i'm sure alot of people will enjoy using those. I'll just set a mutli-targeting sphere on them of course , but still, cool...

sorry it just that the old version that you had for fighters was crap lol. they launched from the carrier then swarmed the target facing the same direction, meaning well you know what i mean. so does that mean the fighters will fly by turn around and fire from there front weapons arcs or just do as they did before like that cardassians ships special weapon thing lol, thats what i thought the old fighter system you had looked like, sorry if makes little sense i am not very good at explaining things

from what i can make out whem they attack they'll manuver a bit like workbees (swarming moving around but face to shoot)

you guys should set it up so that when you tell the carrier to attack something all the fighters go after it as well

nope they do not fly like workbees. they actually fly circles or greater curves and move-and-shoot at the opponents they pass by. they do never stand still.

good good i loved the attack fighters in DS9 and just dont want it to be the same as the pre- version fighter attack or that crappy stock A2 speacial weapon that the cardys use or what the worker bees did.
