Had a crazy idea (literally the night before my exam, whats up with me?), but how would a crazily epic scale mod sound to you guys?
What I was thinking was: Scale down everything to the point that current capital ships (e.g the Paragon, the Onslaught) are 'Frigate' class, and are equivalently frigate sized in-game. Then you'd have your fighters, which would be like, squadrons of Hammerheads or Sunders, lone Eagles and such. Of course, remove most small and medium mounts on ships, letting the large mounts become the small mount equivalent.
And then you'd really get into the modding part, where your destoyers and onwards would be these truly massive vessels (in relative terms), where you'd have like 10+ storm needlers on a broadside, gigantic missile batteries capable of nuking squadrons of Paragons to oblivion, etc. Your freighters would be able to haul entire cities from planet to planet, crewing in the thousands (not really, should probably scale the numbers down on everything, like crew, health, supplies/day, etc).
Just wanted to hear some thoughts.
