How big would a ship need to be to carry a single wing of fighters? Would my Vic be big enough?  

[stellarmagic]

You'd have to turn it into a flying box. Dump most all of the weapons, shrink the power plant, remove all the concussion missiles, cut troop space, and add tractor beams.

It'd be easier just to update the old escort carrier design... a flying box.  

[ElladanKenet]

Hehe, yea....  

[Seriph von Destris]

although it might (if its fighters are destroyed) be easy pickings for an enemy ship.

Its the trade off.
You cant have it all.
There must be compromise.
Besides, an escort Carrier never travels alone.  

[ElladanKenet]

If I hit it with the Transverter, it might as well be. Or even mines would work  

[Seriph von Destris]

yeah, you would have to be pretty stupid to send a carrier all by itself 3nodding  

[ElladanKenet]

You missed the point entirely. Go to the OGG, and look up the LT Transverter  

[Sol Walker]

No, you miss the point entirely.

If Link ever goes pirate, I'm definately taking note of your lack of understanding about the concept of "Escort".
If I'm lucky, you wont understand the idea behind "Convoy" either.  

[ElladanKenet]

Dude, I'm not stupid, but tell me how much a group of caught-unaware escort ships and a carrier huge, ancient, and likely undermanned would face against three EMP mines?  

[Des Voh]

Anyone interested in playing one of Lugers crew in Dark Legacy? I'm looknig for soemone to play his cusin, the Mechanic/Slicer/Pilot. There is one other. I haven't really come up on anything for them but your welcome to come up with it.  

[Sol Walker]

Depends on the caliber of EMP mines.  

[ElladanKenet]

The LT Transverter (if it would go, which it isnt) would take them all out. However, most I can probably scrounge up is some mid-grade mines; easy to acquire, and barely enough to do what is needed  

[Sol Walker]

They'd short them out for a bit. Youd have to be fast to beable to capitalize on their moment of weakness.
If they're military grade ships, it would occur as nothin more than a hiccup in the systems where some bored tech would lose his saved file in the game he's playing.  

[ElladanKenet]

Very well
