Currently I veiw the Viking as a useless unit its main purpose is defence but it is the first war fleet unit covered by fas, what is the point of having a defencive unit hiding in the hanger while your heavy fleet is getting reduced to dust, IT MAKES NO SENSE!

The simple answer is have the viking not covered by the FAS, option 2 have an option to change from covered to not, option 3 remove the unit from the game.

true

viking in large numbers can be send as an asistance to friendly planet and remain there its a fast patch for def on planets that has no def at all thats all

create individual fas tabs for every ship so you can choose units to be covered and units to stay and fight
