 A flying aircraft carrier is the question, right?Oh, I hope thats what is meant...
 Extra crap for maintaining the parasites, different structure for launching the parasites, different load requirements... Otherwise? Not much.

I mean, I'm fine voting for it right now. No need to wait, right?

To be clear, there is no Discord. Folks were discussing the game in the AR General Discord, but all strategy discussion is intended to happen in the team threads, which is to say this thread, as there is only one team.

I can confirm that 99% of the chat in discord was either useless or actively detrimental.

 Hey Nuke, any way we can get some idea of what sorta terrains/ranges we might encounter during play? Or, fer that matter, if we will be able to do sneaky "behind enemy lines" stuff or if we will just be limited to standard front "dont bother to build paratroopers or airbourne units" combat?

Now that we arent at risk of doing two logistics designs, I'll switch back to the gun I want.

In any case it would be a battle of critical thinking and I refuse to fight an unarmed individual.

I'd like to suggest that we focus on our main logistics transport and main infantry weapon before focusing on the airship bomber/carrier.

I suggest don't bother. The Empire is United. We have time. Better to do stuff we want to do than stuff the Empire can handle. Who cares if we don't make any weapons?

Presumably, the empire cares, given the entire reason we are designing things. We are designing for the military not for civilian use.

Of course, Twin is neither man nor woman but an unholy eldritch abomination like every other Bay12er. The difference is they hide it better.

Bops Doomblade
There is nothing saying it can't be this turn, since Andrea is saying to make that instead of the current Aircraft. So It's Pointless. If it is going to be made next turn, supposedly, then why not this turn? The tech needed won't change at all.
