[x] Project Byzantium:Meh want it to but as usual stuff we need to do first but oh well. We totally could make a Macross analog though. It just would not have the main gun.... Or be able to transform... Antigravity is a maybe at best... And probably class it as a Battlestar because it will be a combo battleship and fleet carrier.
But if we get some land air mechs to study we can totally make some veritechs! Though those would be better as Marine units for establishing beachheads and rapid hit and run/fire support missions....
With the successful recovery of the SLS Belisarius it should be a priority to put this large spacecraft back into service and take the time to take a look at its weaponry and other systems, as they are replaced by their WCDC equivalent. This would potentially allow the design of heavy weapon systems, including lasers and kinetics, a vessel of similar size might be equipped with. At the least, it should be possible to determine, whether a massive combat spacecraft of this size makes any sense. At the very least it might be possible to carry a number of dropship collar equipped conventional combat spacecraft to be carried into combat, backed up by a lot of firepower and even act as a Forwards Operations Base.
Time: 6 turns, Chance of success: 60%, Reward: Belisarius put into service for the WCDC, new research options for large scale weaponry and large scale combat spacecraft
We do this and we have an insta all purpose support base.
Probably too late to push it through now but we should keep it in mind in the near future.
We have no idea how well our fighter analogues would stack up against a BT Warship after all if it were to pop up.
