We had supply dread before. It was balanced by weaker loadout. It wasnt op then. We lost it when we lost ability to swap the build for drones. Not because it was an op ship.

And only one reload noobs.

5. That's funny.

No E-W or Reactors? hmm ok.
24 gadgets. and only 4 of those are defenses, On a dread? are you insane. wait you suggested a supply dread so you already must be..
But lets look at it from the other side:
armor (4*7=28) + Drives (4*9=36) + Drones (5*2=10) + Lasers(6*1=6) + Heavy Cannons(5*2=10) = 90
90, isn't that a bit light for a dread?

Anyhow considering that drones repair&reload at the same time i don't think any supply bay will come on a Dread.

>Implying I need to read twice to make a joke.


I get what the OP is saying. If he isn't joking, then I just think he's an idiot and needs to do the research before suggesting things.

As it stands I fully take it as a joke.

So supply dread should have two more drone bays then a support station?

No.

No

Supply ships are a "support" class ship. Destroyer hull, you wont see any bigger than that. Even a cruiser is way to big. Supplys are there to rearm and repair you, not to be invincible ships.

You have low level supplys, medium level supplys (heavys), and then Stations. We already gave you depots and plats too, so no, there will not be other ship classes with OMG supply bays.

The purpose of Command Dreads then would be as a front line combat ship, I assume? I thought the Command Dreads were meant as to have a wide role, with limited ability in each.

What will be the purpose of the Command dreads then, or am I thinking we are getting command dreads and we are not?

Well commanding is one thing they can't do.. they bomb.. then they blow up..
so when u say this "limited ablility in each" perhaps the idea of adding a supply drone (+the dictor??) is viable.. considering u never see them in the metaverse
