Mothership

Overview
The Mothership, also known as a 'MS', is an air unit that carries over from the original game, The Conquerors. Motherships can be produced through Space Links, they take up 2 plane capacity slots, and have high HP and damage. Motherships can also produce Space Fighters. It can garrison 9 space fighters inside it.

Usage
Motherships are usually made mid-late game. They have the ability to garrison space fighters, produce space fighters, and heal space fighters.

Motherships can garrison up to 9 space fighters, which can be used to hide your space fleet from your enemy or to heal damaged space fighters.

Strategy

 * Motherships can be used to transport your space fighters from your enemy to hide your real amount of space fighters. They can also be used to heal space fighters.
 * Since space fighters can be made from the Mothership, you can spam space production, and each time one of your fighters die, you get new fighters to keep on killing.
 * Since it's able to produce the Space Fighter unit it can also be used as a portable Space Link if the enemy has already destroyed your Space Link.
 * Motherships have a higher damage to housing space ratio than space fighters, meaning that getting all motherships is a valid Survival strategy.
