Ship roles (division of labor)

[Instar]

NP, I am just a font of info when I want to be.
Also I forgot!
Another type of ship I use is the fighter interdiction ship, loaded with PDCs. I use them for fighter heavy players, or playes that use lots of missiles.
Also I make a large transport with each of the unit type launching facilities (mine satel fighter mine)
I use it for special ops. Its pretty flexible. (Add cloaking and other goodies, well, hehe all kinds of fun)

Well, the only real "specialized" ship I use is an Explorer.

If I am starting a low tech game I resaerch to light cruiser, missle and repair bay as quick as possible.

Make LC with a repair bay and one missle pod. Max out the engines and finish out with supply pods and a couple armor pods. Later in the game I can use it as a resuppy/repair ship.

In a High Tech game I use the Cruiser and Quantum Reactor with the repair bay with a heavy wave motion gun.
