Agree about unique ships with unique abilities and unique weapon sound design plus victory ditties (and the pilot animations with ship stats). HOWEVER, it would need to look super hot to be relevant with the current and future generation of gamers.

Hi everyone, my name is Greg. Same story as everyone else plus I remixed the Yehat victory ditty for Ur-Quan Masters (would have done more but time...) I'll keep this brief as it's all been said already... Spent many nights of my childhood on SC1 against my brother and the same for SC2.

Perhaps early on in the full game, before you have a chance to upgrade the carrier, it would be wiser to send out scouts/single ships against alien patrols/probes/cargo transports (and take their cargo if you win so you don't need to mine!) Maybe in the main game, certain encounters will call for duels and others
