Title: Interceptor squadrons
Post by: vedrit on February 18, 2009, 06:54:22 am

I suggest that it made possible for airstrip installations to be possible, where 3 interceptors (Can be purchased, equipped, and manned in the modify window of the installation) can be sent out. The installation has a small radar area,so it COULD be put in the middle of nowhere, but a radar station is suggested.
The squadron would have a higher chance of taking down UFOs (Since, I read somewhere, UFOs plan to be sent out in groups)

No, all interceptors will remain base-based.

then what about being able to house a 3-ship squadron inside a hanger? A new, 2x2 building to house it?

One normal craft per hangar. However, we plan to include unmanned vehicles that go in small hangars, and several of them will fit in one hangar.

awsome. Works for me. Maybe I'll model some concepts.
Anything to go off of?

Not in particular, no. If you can come up with something of your own that would be ideal. We will need at least one combat model and a scout model. We intend to have more than just two models, but that's a starting point.
