Big ship supremacy... Can little ships keep up?

[Dizzy]

Hrmmm. This is getting interesting...

I like the idea of basic hulls up front. FF, DD, CL, CA and BB hulls. Now as a control method to start with, I'd have the hulls themselves spaced far enough apart with cost so it'd be more expensive to build and maintain larger hulls at this point.

Now as you research ship contruction... Advanced hulls become available. You get built in bonuses to hit to defense and to movement as example. They are also cheaper to maintain, and may use mounts.

As ship contruction advances, these advanced hulls get better and better and may use better mounts.

Damn I like this idea!
