I'm not sure if this one is beating a dead horse. But how bout heroes. I would like to see "hero" units in the game. Or the very least, captains who we could assign to captain our ships. They would be able to earn experience and gives the ships bonus. If they do lose a battle, they would escaped and return to our captain's list to be assign on another ship. One thing thought, if they do lose a battle, they should lose experience. Also, there is a chance they can die instead of escaping.

You should be able to name captains. And there has to be a limit on how many captains you can have. Say, 4 or 5 at a time. One thing is, captains should have a level limit so they don't become too powerful, yet still be a factor.

What do you guys think? Not demanding this for Dark Avatar or the next Patch if it'll take too much time to implement, but I would like to see it before Galciv 3.

But for the meantime, how bout just a superficial UI where we can assign captains to ships. No bonus or anything, just a line where we can add names of captains for each ship.

I was thinking, this could be done by adding an additional UI line for each ship. This could be handled the same way as naming ships except this area would point to captain's names.

I've played the star trek mod, but it just seems like its missing the most important part of that show, Captains. What would the Enterprise be without Captain T. Kirk or Picard? Even Enterprise would have been alot worst without Bakula.
