I was thinking about converting the Starcraft Terran's and Protos's fleet into Armada system, I love the video game and there is similarity between the navy. But as there is not much diversity so it's down to maybe ten ships or squadrons.
For this to work we'll have to list all the convertible units :
Terran
Battlecruiser : based on its model, it could be a large, medium or even small ship, with the Onager mecanic.
Wraith : standard squadron of the terran navy
etc.
Protoss
Carrier : large base with maybe a hangar bay system with unique squadrons that prevent it to move when they are out.
Mothership : huge ship similar to the Lucrehulk-class Battleships
Phoenix : standard squadron of the protoss navy
etc.
What do you think of this ?
I think this could be pretty cool. The biggest downside is the diversity issue, not just with number of ships but the sizing: not a lot of frigates or corvettes for some reason.
Arbiters and science vessels would make reasonable small bases at least, and Valkyries/Liberators are flotilla-sized. I'm assuming SC2 is on the table (since the Phoenix is included) making the Void Ray a good candidate, and there are tons of squadrons to choose from: Dropships, Vikings, Ravens, Corsairs, Scouts, Shuttles, Warp Prisms.
The Gorgon-class would make a good large if the Minotaur-class is sized as a medium.
Heck, you might be able to stretch the Zerg into a faction by aggressively downsizing the Leviathan into a black-dice-brawling large, pushing the Brood Lord and Overlord into multi-model flotillas, throwing in the Swarm Guardian as a medium and filling out the rest with squadrons.
