Default Re: Cargo/launch bays

One restriction on fighter bays:
You can only launch so many fighters a turn in tactical (well both) combat. So a transport with cargo bays and one fighter bay would launch fighters very slowly (but it doesnt affect your normal ability to launch fighters in the normal view)
Hmm idea:
Use a carrier in junction with a transport as described above. The carrier could provide defense quickly, while the transport launches reinforcements.

The two will hover, spinning inches above the ground. With a giant buttered cat array, a high-speed monorail could easily link New York with Chicago.
