Seeker and Dictator CVs are very nice

I like the idea with the Triumph too.

Only reason I thought Mule was because of the Pocket WarShip mod when I thought about it more it's a bad idea.

Good thing about these three all in use (Dictator fluffed) as Magistracy new builds I like the whole wing idea and a Davion one to boot almost no canon design follows that...

Dragon Cat on CBT


Really, as long as there is an unbroken line of people calling themselves "Clan Nova Cat," it doesn't really matter to me if they're still using Iron Wombs or not. They may be dead as a faction, but as a people they still exist. It's not uncommon in the real world, after all.

The Dictator CV is a nice idea especially cause it is an outdated Mech carrier and could be available for aerospace variation. I'd go with a full reinforced wing (24 fighters), a squadron of small craft (6),
and a battalion of marines (9 platoons). With 800 tons to play with it would easily be the premier aerospace variant of the day.

The Triumph CV is well suited to deliver its aerospace cargo of 18 fighters, 6 small crafts, with 4 infantry platoons for boarding actions. With 1,000 tons to play with still I like it a lot.

The Seeker CV is good too because of its speed but can only carry 18-20 fighters comfortably limiting its appeal for me.
