Perhaps a -1 fleet point cost to any fighters housed within the Astral's hangar? E.G. if you have 5 Broadswords and 5 Wasps they'd count as 5 and 3 FP each for a total of 40 FP towards your overall limit and your combat deployment. Maybe some other carriers can have similar cost reductions (like the Odyssey being a -1/4 and a Condor being a -1/3 or something).
I like that idea, but I think fighters need a total re-balancing. I think (this is my opinion) that the FP cost of a fighter should be how hard it is to maintain the fighter, and hanger points should be how much space is there to store them. Flight decks should represent what they do now. The FP costs should be determined by the tech level of the fighters, the complexity of those fighters, whether or not they need to be manned or not, and the number of fighters in a wing.
So, under this news system, talons should still take three. One because they are manned and two because there are four fighters of low tech level and complexity. A xyohos wing, on the other hand would be five, one for being manned, and two per fighter because there are two in the wing and they are extremely complex. Some might say, "what about wasp wings?" Well, they are drones, but drones are complex. However, my impression of them is that they are quite simple, so how about a FP rating of four, three because there are six fighters in a wing, so two per FP, and one because they are drones, and thus are complex. Now, this seems silly to have a FP added for being manned and one added for being drones, but the FP for manned is added to everything, so that balances, however, if it is possible, wasps should have a lower FP cost if there is a carrier of a high enough tech level in your fleet. I dont think that is possible though, so I dont really know exactly what to do with them.
