I don't have JTL but will be getting it ASAP. I was thinking about something that I would think would be really cool. Ok here it goes.
Scenario:
Your on a Imperial Command Ship that an Imperial can drop (One per zone).
When the Command Ship is dropped the owner is allowed to pick 5 other Players to help man the turrets and drive. This Ship can be a place where other Imperials besides yourselfs come to refurl, heal up, and chat and whatnot (Yes there would be a lobby of some sort).
There are docking bays for all the players on board. Your chatting away when suddenly a siren goes off. Either NPC Rebels or Rebel Player's vessels are attacking your Command ship. Everyone rushes to their ships and you fly out of the bay in waves and waves of Tie's etc. The owner of the Command Ship and the gunners try to gun down what they can. You fight to the death and if you win you stay out there, patrol a bit, then return to the Command Ship. If you lose and the turrets are destroyed on the ship, and all the PvP Imperials are killed then the Rebels can take out that Ship that was dropped. This is somewhat similar to Factional Bases on the ground but this would cost MUCH MUCH more.
If the cost is too high for you then you can split the cost with someone else and you two can be the co-owners.
Comments? I just thought this would be a great idea.
Now

What do the Rebels get?? Before you say the same thing you must remember that they are a RAGTAG group of people fighting for the GOOD of the galaxy. The ONLY reason that they had things like the Mon Cal Cruisers was becuase the Mon Cal's hated the Empire so they joined the Rebels and gave them their ships. By you size estamate it would be much smaller then a Mon Cal or Star Destroyer but bigger then a Decimator or a Nova.

Command ships AKA super star destroyers, dwarf the regular ISD's in size. I dont think normal sysems could handle the thing. maybe put it in DS and have ISD's in normal space would work better
otherwise its a great idea.

Nice idea. This would be realy cool. As for what ships, maybe the Imperials could get Dreadnaughts and the Rebels could get modified cargo ships. The Corvettes can't carry fighters and the Nebulon B Escort Frigates were Imperial, the one or two the Rebels had were stolen or defectors. The Rebels had fighters with hyperdrives mainly because they only had a few ships that could carry fighters. In all actuality the Hutts or the Hapans probably had more carrier types than the Rebels. Still, way cool idea. 5 stars.
