So this idea came in my head just now. I came up with it as an idea to make a Defender flying with a bomber or any ordinance carrier, to make an interesting combo. So here it is.
Imagine if you would a networked targeting computer. It would act something like when the Defender attacks if it has a target lock on its victim, it could shoot missiles or torpedoes, a bomber is hauling as if they were its own. Maybe if the Bomber was range 1-2 of the Tie Defender.
This thought is maybe 10 mins old so no details have actually been worked out obviously. Anyways it was just a random idea that sounded completly frickin' awesome.
