Description
After researching the Acclamator-class Transports, Forty proposed a new Transport to the Confederacy. Lucrehulks are massively expensive, yet a Captor-class Transport could provide the very same benefits as the Lucrehulk, albeit in a smaller, and less gunned package. Still, these transports could provide assistance in blockades, provide the main force for an invasion, and still support fleets. More easily, they could be used in small taskforces with less resources than a Lucrehulk or Providence fleet. The only significant downside is the size and weaponry, but their purpose is not for ship-to-ship combat, they excel at anti-EWAR tactics. With all weapons on the ship manually controlled, the only EWAR tactic really left is shutting down said weapons. No targeting malfunction or early detonations, but with a droid at the helm of each weapon, it may not be the best shot taken every time.
