My favorite ship is the Halcyon Carrier... It's also usually my flagship. My main reason is it's fighter support and heavy firepower. This thing packs almost as much firepower as a battleship when you level it up or research the right techs. As for starter ship, I usually build a Halcyon Carrier and imediately save up for a Progenitor Mothership right afterwards as soon as I've researched the right tech. With this combo no "neutral" faction can stand up to me and colonizing is

Personally the best such system was the Master of Orion system... you have a set number of points which represents the ships you can have with free maintenance... any ships beyond that have to be paid for. Example: (just throwing numbers, not likely accurate) You have 10 points, you build a battleship which costs 6 points... and a titan which costs 8 points... so now you're 4 points over your limit so you pay 40 credits per turn (10 * points you whent over) or something like that. <

I have lots of information about wing commander... I simply love the series of games, although I was dissappointed by the Prophecy/Secret Ops games, the Nephilim seemed like a poor attempt to continue a story when the story should have been started instead. (Battle of McAuliffe would have been more fun than a new alien threat.) Personally I'd love to build Vesuvius-class supercarriers in Sins, but that brings up an important question: Do you intend to be accurate to the canon?
