I believe that the ship your thinking of is a Super Monitor as the Battlestar hasn't been put in any scenario by the dev staff, though I could be wrong.
I feel like a one legged man in an ASS kickin' contest!

I can't see the Battlestar taking its intended role with the way PDS is evolving. It's a cool hull but even if it were finished it would have far too many weaknesses to be a fleet in itself like it used to be. Anyways this is off topic but, I took the battlestar and a few other hiigaran ships and fixed them into vanilla HW2 and that restored my faith in the ship. If somehow PDS ships ever get 'soft' again the battlestar will come back to life, until then it just takes a beating waiting for its enemies to die. even if someone increased its endurance, it'd still be in quicksand in anything less than a fair fight.

On that account, why hasn't a Battle of Midway map or three been made? One of the most pivital historical battles and no one has outlined it? If it's a possibility I wouldn't mind helping to flesh something like that out. I have a book with all ships that participated.

(It was mostly a carrier/ fighter battle) Not mostly, it WAS a carrier battle (with a little submaine involvement). Won't really make a good scenario, since the escort fleets would simply duke it out, ignoring the carriers... |

I'm just saying we have all the elements available to make such a scenario why not at least try it. -Fear the Might of the Imperial Cortharian Fleet
