I'm thinking gunships would fill the HAV destroying role and be the most expensive to buy and the highest skill required to fly. - Launching in a fighter will also make you the target of every swarm launcher on the map. I think they'll be deathtraps, so they shouldn't be terribly expensive. Gunships kill ground troops and vehicles, dropships carry troops into battle, and fighters try to stop both of those from wreaking havok. Previous mentions of Fighters by the Devs have stated that they're far too fast for our current maps, and that they'd be "hitting the redline constantly". I don't think Swarm Launchers are going to be much of a threat.

Actually, I had a thread a little while back that suggested that all forms of fixed-wing aircraft have access to the entire district, and be able to provide support in all battle-zones of the district, since as you can see in EVE, even the fullest extent of our current maps barely accounts for a fraction of a district.

Also do you think the planes can out fly/run small AND large missle turrets, I saw a video for a HAV with a hybrid missle turret and it had a lock on.

EVE ships > Dust fighters > Dust ground pounders Bitchin idea. Not sure how it would work though. Fighters would have to quit one match and enter another repeatedly and smoothly. How would that work if one match is full?

How would that work if one match is full? I was thinking of a system for dynamic instancing. Chris Roberts and company are working on a system like that for Star Citizen, and running one map on many different servers was how MAG managed to support that many players (and by keeping them segregated into different areas). Basically they would be able to interact with other zones, but could only land and rearm on their own MCC in their starting zone.
