Line 115:

"''It would be like tying a fishing boat to a larger ship by rope.''" Why wouldn't that work? this is a tactic used by several militaries, in the form of chase boats, which are deployed from the sides or from the back of the ship. This is also used by several illegal, factions namely somali pirates. all in all it's a valid tactic.

:I can't imagine towing fighters would be good when the ship entered slipspace. It's pointed out in ''Ghosts of Onyx'' that technicians have been known to vanish when trying to repair unshielded, active slipspace drives. Clamped to the side of the ship, a fighter would be outside the shielding...--[[User talk:The All-knowing Sith'ari|The All-knowing Sith'ari]] 13:33, 31 January 2012 (EST)
