More fighter classes

[Charless]

In most Sifi large capital ships have parasite ships. Frigates, corvettes and other ships. Wouldn't it make sense to have this ability in the game. How this could work is you would be given a small grid to design covets with a smaller block size. You would choose weapons to be put on them and save the design. You would buy these designs from shipyards. These would take up much larger amounts of hanger space but act as other fighters albeit slightly slower.  Frigates would have five weapons two main and and three point defense (chainguns) corvettes would only have 1 main and two point defense. Further more, when boarding is implemented boarding shuttles could be added which would ferry certain amounts of raiders to ships. once they get within a certain range they disappear indicating they have deposited the troops. this would make it so unless you severely cripple a ship boarding shuttles are likely to get shot down. This would make it more for a more interesting game mechanic and would make it easier for larger ships to board without crashing into the other vessel. Transport shuttles could also be implemented into the game for large ships trying to dock with stations. Still a rough idea but i want to hear what you guys think about this.
