Know what? I just got an idea.

If you fail to destroy an enemy capital ship, that same capital may appear again as reinforcement in another mission. A little of playing around with the SEXPs and it can be done.

No way - you'll be cowering in your seat as you press 'commit' again and wish your mummy would come and save you from this horrible, never-ending nightmare.

Yeh, I think it's pretty good.

I'd like to see them possibly for other purposes.  Something like if you're flying a ship loaded with helios torpedoes and you're the last bomber left, and you need to take out the destroyer, just kamakaze the the thing and eject before you hit(the cockpits should be equipped with minature jump drives the will at least clear you from the battle in a random direction on a one shot deal).  Great for a heroic last-ditch effort, and possibly earning a medal and promotion.

Ok, I'll stop rambling now

And suddenly, the game asks you to replay the game because you should return with the bomber and not without.

Alpha 1: I got a lock on the sathanas!

Command: Well what are you waiting for? Get off your ***  and destroy the sathanas now!

Alpha 1: Yeah yeah!

*Alpha 1 mistakenly presses the ejection seat instead of the missle fire button*

*Alpha 1 is ejected from his bomber*

Alpha 1: @#$%!

Seriously, ejection seats would be a good idea, it would add to the gameplay!

How about filling your cockpit full of TNT and ejecting into a destroyer  

If this can be done I'm copyrighting the move

I don't think kamikazing is a good idea. No glory and honor.
