Does anyone have any ideas for a fighter launch rack? I saw one onboard a
huge microfig carrier on this Japanese site and it looked very cool. It
consisted of a weird technic contraption with the fighters attached to it.
I'm building a carrier for my microfig fleet, and I need this launch rack
design.
By the way, do you think capital ships should be able to carry other capital
ships? The larger ship would have to be a truly great size and the smaller
ship would have to be a frigate or gunboat class, but is it feasible? The
Eclipse Star Destroyer could hold an entire Star Destroyer in its docking
bay. Is it reasonable to build a very large capital ship with a small force
of strike cruisers inside the hangar?
