This is not an official poll or anything, I am not starting it as a Standoff staff member but as just "me the curious".
Would you prefer capships with only one component that constitutes the whole ship à-la WC2 or have multi-components capships à-la WCP for Standoff ?
A single-component capship would have two big advantages: First, staying consistent with WC2 about how to kill them, but more importantly it would allow capship battles ! The probelm with multi-components capships like those in WCP/SO is that the capship AI cannot target individual capship components and instead shoots on the center on it's enemy. If the main hull covering the whole ship was the only component, this would not be a problem at all !
What do you think ?
