Default Re: Q-ships

The firing points are all trial and error in my experience..the Showfiringpoints cheat helps, though.

One thing I have done is make freighters that carry Honor-Harrigton style missile pods. What these are are satellites that can be dropped and act like immobile fighters. Of course, most immobile fighters don't have five one-shot Capital Ship Missile launchers..

EDIT: I should point out that by default the AI doesn't handle these all that well, since it only drops them when it gets fairly close to its opponnent.
