Fleet carriers

[Dagwit]

I'd say it's reached the point that when carriers for squadrons are finally introduced, it'll be easier for everyone if Frontier just starts calling them Fleet Carriers, rather than try to make the player base remember that they're supposed to be called Squadron Carriers.

Well, the player groups aren't called "fleets" are they.

FDev did call them Fleet Carriers when they were introduced:

Officers can plot a jump for a Fleet Carrier (yes/no)
Officers can select purchase upgrades for a Fleet Carrier (yes/no)

The Fleet Carrier

As you might have noticed above, it will be possible for Squadrons to possess a Fleet Carrier. We will be devoting an entire Focused Feedback thread to Squadron Fleet Carriers, so please refrain from discussing it at this time.

Some players incorrectly call them Squadron Carriers, not FDev.

That is a decent rule to live by.
