How about having it carry upto 6 maxes OR 2 light vehicles or 1 heavy vehicle. e.g. a harasser and a lightning or an ams/vanguard instead of just 1 of any vehicle. As for gunners there should only be 1 forward facing 20mm machine gun at most. We dont want anything more powerful than a galaxy because that is an apc, the lodestar is a vehicle transport. BTW the maxes cannot shoot.

Lodestar V. 1.2

Armor: 1500

Speed: 60kph

Armament: None

Passenger Slots: 1 pilot slot in front, six MAX slots along the struts

Other: Has Equipment and Advanced Medical Terminals in bay. MAX's can actually walk around in-flight.

Eh?

I think it should carry 6 basilisks/ switchblades/ wraiths. *They're all tiny vehicles, and the lode is after all a vehicle carrier*. Only problem is... how the hell would you find SIX people with the ATV cert?

this minus the gunners= GREAT!
my outfit could reay use it...

Especially if you machinegun the turrets to buggery first.

Thinking about it. 6 MAXes dropping on a tower you would not win it. For a start, they cannot even hack the door. Heh.

Plus I like the idea that the Lodestar is defenseless. Air Cavalry is needed to defend it on its travels, makes a mission alot more interesting.
