We've all seen the pics of the M2 from the Giga website it looks like you can own a capital ship as part of a mission! So what do you thing they're going to be like to fly!
The bridge looks spacious, I'd expect the ship to have a the reactions of a TL, but more weaponry than you can possably imagine, I'm interestd to see how battles between capital ships are carried out and how you control your fleet of cap ships! a tactical formation?
Hopefully it will be possible to write a script for the gun positions of any ship with multiple guns, to engage targets, allowing you to concentrate on flying
Maybe you can enable more then one script at the time to sepperate weaponsystems (turrets), so you can set the scripts you want active before you enter the sector that holds the cap ship you want to attack.

I was under the impression that you could own capital ships although they were going to be rather costly.
As for fighting in them, I'd got the standard tactics of getting behind the target one and blasting the hell out of it with lasers and missiles

Maybe they use subspace compression and the crew is only a few uncompressed ppl.
On xtensionx.de there are some small pics on top, one of them being a Khaak capital ship, the specs mention "Andockplätze für Schiffe: 150"
that means 150 dockingspaces inside, so holding 500+ won't be possible anymore in X2 i think.
