Crazy idea maybe but i talked it over in my head and really feel that command ships apart from offering boosts and massive tanks should provide a user interactive module.
I'm not very good at putting stuff into words. basically this module can scan a battlefield giving results in a scan probe style ui giving the command ship valuable information to relay to FC's and fleet intel.
So what information? I don't know I'm greedy but my ideas ranged around estimated enemy ehp, resists, capacitor/capital warfare. Perhaps this idea has been discussed before. I didnt look into it but feel its something to think about.

Maybe command ship should get scan strength boost similar to explorer? Make it a hunter/leader... No hide no hack just combat probe friendly

Is that my two cents or yours?

That should go to recons actually. Combat Probes being a .... Recon role & all. CPU bonus to Combat Probes would be good enough. No scan strength needed really. Just a CPU bonus so they can fit the 220 CPU Launchers......

That can work too, was just expanding the idea of OP for a possible solution that might work. Would not provide stats as OP intended but can provide a little visibility on off grid people.

Command Ships are pretty good already to be honest. Other than the general meta not supporting anything larger than a cruiser most of the time, they are in a good place relative to the other BC's.

I fully support the recon Cobat probe CPU reduction cost idea, right now only my arazu fits them simply because i dont put anything in the highslots and faction points / scrams use less CPU.

I couldn't fit it on my falcon if i wanted to and it would gimp my pilgrim / rapier fits as well in the current state.
