[quote who="Annatar11" reply="6" id="2098320"]Just as an example, Sins doesn't have a Homeworld-style carrier (as in, a ship that can build other ship). But there are ability triggers to spawn frigates, and there is a way to make abilities cost resources and have an activation delay. Combining all of that, you can make a new ship that can "build" up to 5 (Entrenchment, 4 in vanilla Sins) different frigates/cruisers.[/quote] A other example, in the stargate mod of Doylni

[quote who="Dizzy_XC" reply="14" id="2097896"]I mean, why would I take an ISD Type I when for the same tech and logistics and nearly the same price I can get a better type II?[/quote] Why do you think that VSD2 is better that VSD1... one is more laser type, the other more missile type... both have very different ability... the VSD1 have directly 2 command point, VSD2 have only one command point... Using a VSD1 along with a VSD2 give a more better
