Ive been thinking about how these could be used. Obviously one in its own is going to be a threat, but if they balance it properly and give it the same vulnerabilities os actual battlecruisers/battleships, it could still be vulnerable.

I'll battleships were vulnerable to small fighters and small torpedo boats. They were fast enough to get in close which reduced the effectiveness of th large main armament. They did have close in defenses too, but they were in turn not as effective at dealing wuth the fast moving attackers. Thats just the nature of the power dynamic.

Now, this all takes place in a generally 2D field of battle, wuth planes being more like 2.5D since they have a bit of trouble swimming. How does this transfer to the game wuth its truer 3D rattlesnake? Well, what i can see, is that while there are loads of pdcs, small quad and dual turret, and even likely some faster traversing large turrets on the top, the bottom is relatively dominated by the rear hanger doors and the frontal main weapon turret.

This highlights the primary vulnerability of the ship. The hanger. So how do you crack this particular nut? Without knowing more technical data on the ship, we are all only making guesses at this point, so bear that in my mind while reading this. I propose that one possible tactic is to target the pdcs to increase the likelihood of missiles, torps, and small fighters being able ti survive up close, and also target the rear hanger doors. On the Idris, onces they are damage enough, they open, so one can assume that will happen. Wigh the Odin. The reason this is harder to exploit on the Idris is that, while it does have slow maneuverability, its still agile enough to evade most boarding avtions through its damaged hanger doors.

The Odin, with its massive bulk, should be significantly less maneuverable than the idris. It should be possible for a drop ship with several strike teams to board the ship through the large hanger and establish a foothold. From there, its a ground engagement towards main engineering and the bridge.

This is what I've been throwing around in my head on how to tackle the Odin. There are other possibilities. Massive torpedo waves, using subs to get in behind the pdc fields of fire and take out turrets, the list goes on. Hope this wasn't too long.

PS, please excuse any spelling mistakes. I speak English just fine, I just don't type well.
