Maybe it would make sense to add some "fast but fragile" type fighter ships to the mix? There are already quite a few "heavy but powerful" ships, so balancing it out could lead to some good choices for players to coordinate which actions they'd like to do. BTW, some videos of Subspace/Continuum... has a lot of good ideas you may consider borrowing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9W4jJGQU_E (the general "vanilla" fighting game) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CwkVrxYZvEE ("Trench Wars", by far the most popular mod of Subspace, was a team strategy "hold the base" type game) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
