A capital ship that's actually just 20 lashers taped together, with the special ability to come lose. 

Make them explosive Lashers.
You hit the thing once (or worse, it hits you), and YOU HAVE AWOKEN THE BEE'S NEST.

Ever played X2 the Threat? It had a similar enemy.

I have never played X2 the Threat, but could you explain please?

Darn, I got excited and thought I somehow missed the part 2 coming out. Boy it sure has been a while since part 1, wink wink nudge nudge.

I'm unreasonably excited for the next update, thanks for the detailed blog posts!

I am Happy luddic church, persean league, and sindrian diktat have newer toys to play with

but after seeing the remnant fleet get 2 ships...
I can't tell whether it will be fun or painful
BUT A REMNANT SHIP THAT BEHAVES LIKE THE RETRIBUTION!?

EMPEROR I SHALL MAKE YOU PROUD TODAY BY RAMMING MY SHIPS ONTO THY ENEMY!!!

[Megas]

A Remnant that will charge into weapons range of your ships and has no backward mobility (Nova) is much preferable to a brick that can easily escape to vent if it loses the flux war (Radiant).  Currently, the strength of an Ordos fleet can be measured in part by how many Radiants it has (and Radiants usually have alpha cores after the fleets have grown).  Radiants and AI cores make Ordos the challenge that they are.

Bee's nest? you mean the khaak? yeah they were scary but i never encountered them in x3 but will hope to play x2 as there was the storyline quest i couldn't finish yet. still ships were fun to play especially the corvette's and fighters. personal favorite is the paranid hyperion, the yaki tenjin, and split enhanced chimera, for capital ships i go for pteranadon and ray

Anything for the Knights of Ludd in the works? Granted they only have a single base (and I don't recall ever seeing any fleets for them specifically) but it does seem like a missed opportunity considering a commission with the church names you a Knight if I recall correctly.

Basically a mid sized/small capital ship that exploded into a fighter squadron when it had taken a degree of damage.
I think it was about a half dozen light fighters and a heavy fighter.

Do we know the details of the Distributed Fire Control hullmod found on the Invictus and Retribution? The only solid thing so far that's been stated in the blog post is it blocks DTC and ITU from being installed, and that it increases weapon health. Does it increase weapon range at all, speed up repairs, or anything else?

[Grievous69]

I doubt it increases weapon range, the part about Retribution specifically states that the idea is to keep its weapons short ranged. And the Invictus itself gets passive range bonus from its system, so yeah there's no way there are more range buffs.

[PizzaInSpace]

Personally i prefer to have retribution short ranged after all that orion engine could prove situational as you can push ships to crash into each other and can be fun too. Despite there being space battles there isn't any means of utilizing ramming tactics or even boarding attempts added yet to the game
