Re: Tug Boats
I like the idea and it has been said many times before. But it is still worth mentioning again. I personally don't see how it affects gameplay much. I would suggest that the prerequisite tech be Tractor Beams (Grav Tech??).
However, I don't see a whole lot of uses for it - I tend to repair or destruct damaged ships on site and don't really know if I'd want to tow them back. Maybe in a game with limited resources where you'd want to keep each and every point possible.. OTOH, if you could tow a starbase with ring / sphereworld components - now that's another story entirely...
