Re: Random Thoughts, Observations, and Questions..
Parasite, I see the AI throwing around baseships all the time. At least, the TDM AI's do. Recently I faced a fleet of about 100 ships; 84 of them were baseships.
In stock, at max tech, Baseships aren't significantly slower than Dreadnoughts. A dreadnought can travel at speed 9, and a baseship at speed 8. The advantage of the Massive mount and an extra 500kT of space outweighs the slight speed disadvantage (in my opinion, of course).
