Summary0000232: Flak Frigate
Descriptionok ,so, everyone makes a noob suggestion in here that will never be realised;
heres mine

FLAK FRIGATES

think the flak from freespace 2; short range, AoE and badass CRASH CRASH CRASH sound as it detonates.

ingame terms, a frigate with identical hp/speed to missle frigates, but rather than the missle it has a short range flak weapon (projectiles that explode with small AoE)

this makes them less useful on offense, where enemy forces can just move away from slow short range units, and more useful on wave defence, where flak spam can rip up enemy fighters, teleport raiders and other low HP spam. the downside is heavier losses since frigates are fragile.

I imagine the starfleet AI would like to use these in tandem with starships a fair deal
