They would go into a corner. I think.

I don't know about that. I haven't tested this so it is pure conjecture, but I was actually gonna do this in a game one time but my fleet was waxxed before I could try. Since there would be no other ships besides TT's, I think they would all rush the planet and try to capture it. If your run-of-the-mill attack ship was labelled as a TT, you might have to tweak the "Capture Planet" strategy to get them to fire appropriately.

I was also thinking that you could transition ships in and out of the "TT" class by a retrofit, which would not even have to change any components or cost anything.

Like I said, I haven't tested this, but I think it could work.

Slick.
