Wow, I'm honored that you would include me.

Ship set design class???
If you're talking about creating ship sets, I have 2 Doga's and a cut and paste from another proggy. Atrocities would be the one to invite for this.

If you're talking about designing your ship layout, component speaking, in game, I still get surprised by the multitude of different ways to configure a ship.

I am familiar with many different aspects of this game; AI making, shipset making, Modding, and playing; but I don't know if I qualify in any one area enough to be a guest speaker. I like to think of myself as an alien of all trades, and a master jedi of none. If you would still like me to field questions at one of your sessions, I will do my best.

EDIT _ For instance, I just found out that fighter bays can land troops to conquer a planet.

Yeah, that is the problem with totally generic cargo bays... the game needs some sort of "drop troops" ability that adds to the max kT of troops you can drop in a combat.

Perhaps a separate ability and component specifically to launch/recover troops?

Gand you make fantastic ships.

Also Kwoks skool of Planet Design was a perfect format for the guest speakers if they wish to run a workshop or tutorial.

Or you can just chat.

Both styles are great.
